TV viewers will soon be able to see the morning show Sunrise on Sky News (DStv 402) between 07:00 to 10:00 online when Sunrise, together with three new video series, will be made available on the internet.

Yahoo! and Sky News are teaming up to bring Sunrise, Sky News' flagship morning news show presented by Eamonn Holmes and Charlotte Hawkins to viewers online.

Sunrise will be made available together with three original co-commissioned series covering politics, technology and business, namely Thinking Aloud, a current affairs show presented by Joey Jones, Loose Change presented by Poppy Trowbridge and Ursula Errington and The Lab.

The online site will also have a window on Sky News' live feed during breaking news events. The Sky News Sunrise hub will be hosted on Yahoo! News UK and the content and the original series will be available globally.
