The announcement means you can access the last 30 days of ITV catch-up content from the full set of channels – ITV, ITV2, ITV3 and ITV4 – in time for the World Cup.

You'll also be able to catch all the action from the Tour de France, as well as the entire range of ITV favourites from Britain's Got Talent to Coronation Street and more.

ITV Player can be found in the UK Roku Channel Store on all current-generation Roku players, and that includes the new Roku Streaming Stick (HDMI version).

ITV's Martin Goswami added: "A key part of our strategy is to make our content accessible on multiple platforms and we are delighted to be working with Roku."

The announcement comes a week after it was confirmed that ITV's channels had been added to the Sky Go platform – including the new drama channel ITV Encore.
