Eleven (stylised as ELEVEN) is an Australian free-to-air digital television multichannel that is owned and operated by ElevenCo, a joint venture between Network Ten and CBS Studios International. This channel launched on 11 January 2011 It offers catch-up and encore programming. Eleven is also the home of Australia’s longest running drama series, Neighbours.
Network Ten established a separate joint venture named ElevenCo, with international distributor CBS Studios International to provide content for Eleven. Subject to regulatory approval, Ten holds two-thirds equity stake in the venture, with CBS holding the remaining share. Under the arrangement, Eleven sources programming from CBS's back catalogue.
Eleven offers catch-up and encore presentations from Channel Ten It features a mix of repeated old shows, brand new shows to Australian television, and shows that would make their debut on Australian free-to-air television.
Some of Ten's shows aimed at a younger demographic, most notably Neighbours and The Simpsons, were moved to Eleven on the day it launched, as part of Ten's re-branding to target the older demographic, while the younger shows move to Eleven. The decision to move Neighbours and The Simpsons was to also make way for a new current affairs show in Ten's 6:00–7:00pm timeslot.Neighbours has since become Eleven's highest-rating program and the number-one regular Australian program on the digital multichannels, averaging 278,000 viewers.
On 27 February 2012, Toasted TV was moved from Ten to Eleven due to a number of changes to their morning line-up, which included the launch of Breakfast. In November 2013, more of Ten's shows including Totally Wild, Scope, Wurrawhy and Mako: Island of Secrets moved to Eleven due to the launch of Wake Up, later cancelled due to bankruptcy and Studio 10. Other first-run Australian content on Eleven include Couch Time, The Loop and Bondi Ink Tattoo.
