But now older LG TVs will be given the update too.

It comes just a couple of months after the company revamped its free channel offering.

LG says the move will effectively evolve people's smart TVs into "the ultimate home entertainment hub".

Among the improvements is even more personalised content directly on the home screen.

• LG’s 2022 QNED Mini LED 8K (QNED99/95 series)

LG says the update will land on eligible TVs in "early 2024" - so any point from now.
