DISNEY CHANNEL ORIGINAL MOVIES
Programming event
Fridays throughout August at 17:00

Great news! This August we continue our treat for movie fans – the chance to see a classic Disney Channel Original Movie every Friday at 17:00, repeated on Saturday at 10:40.

We kick off the month with The Swap (Friday 7th August), continued with Cloud 9 (Friday 14th August), followed by Pixel Perfect (Friday 21st August), and finally Teen Beach Movie (Friday 28th August).

In Teen Beach Movie (Friday 28th August) Ross Lynch (Austin & Ally) and Maia Mitchell star in this modern take on the summer beach party movie. They play Brady and McKenzie, surfers who ride the last wave of summer, one that mysteriously takes them into a classic beach party movie, Wet Side Story. There it's surfers versus bikers for control of the beach hangout…and everyone spontaneously breaks into song and dance. Brady and McKenzie must try to return to the present day, but their lives may be changed forever when they inadvertently change the movie's romantic storyline, and the movie's handsome surf guy, Tanner, is falling for McKenzie, while biker girl Lela is swooning for Brady. It’s an unmissable slice of summer fun in the sun!

Fans have a chance to see these great Disney Channel Original Movies again on Fridays throughout August at 17:00, repeated on the following Saturday at 10:40.
