Australia
In Australia, timeshift channels typically carry a time delay of two hours, making the time shift channels run on local time in Western Australia when daylight saving time isn't in effect. These channels may accordingly be described as +2, such as on Arena, although the timeshift for W. is branded as W2. More than 20 timeshift channels exist, most of them for entertainment channels.
