'''Sky One''' is one of British Sky Broadcasting's entertainment channels in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland. BSkyB is owned by [[w:News Corporation|News Corporation]].
 
Sky One has the broadcast rights to air [[Season 1 (2004-05)|Season One]] to [[Season 3 (2006-07)|Three]] of the [[Re-imagined Series]].
 
The ''Battlestar Galactica'' [[Miniseries]] was a pilot jointly funded and produced by the following companies:
*[[R and D TV|R&D TV]]
*Sky TV
*NBC Universal (formerly USA Cable Entertainment LLC)
 
The miniseries was distributed on a variety of TV channels including Sky One (UK) and [[Sci Fi Channel]] (US).
 
After the success of the Miniseries, a 13 episode series was greenlighted and produced by the same companies as the pilot. The first episode, "[[33]]", was broadcast in the United Kingdom on 18th October 2004, 8:00 PM on Sky One, three months before its premiere in the United States on 14th January 2005. Sky One negotiated first-broadcast rights of season 1 of the series as part of its financial backing terms.
 
After Season One, Sky One does not provide major financial backing of the series, but it still credited due to its investments with set and pre production early in the series.
