Titled Trucking Hell, this new FAST channel sees KI licensing and delivering nine seasons (159 hours) of Crackit TV’s Trucking Hell – an adrenaline-fueled “at work” factual entertainment series about heavy vehicle rescue – to the Seven Network for its streaming platform 7plus.

Trucking Hell takes viewers inside the high-stakes world of Crouch Recovery, a family-run heavy rescue operation that clears Britain’s biggest road disasters—fast—so the country keeps moving. Each episode follows the full recovery cycle, from the emergency call to the final clearance: rollovers, smash-ups, breakdowns, and tangled motorway blockages, tackled with an extraordinary fleet of super-heavy recovery vehicles and a crew of larger-than-life specialists. They work in punishing conditions—night, rain, wind, live traffic—with police, highways agencies and customers demanding immediate results. They might look like everyday blokes, but when a motorway becomes a danger zone, Crouch Recovery are the unsung heroes who go in, lift the impossible, and get Britain back on track.

Last December, KI and the Seven Network launched True Crime Files, a FAST channel on 7plus featuring true crime content produced predominantly by Woodcut Media – including the latest two seasons of the phenomenally successful World’s Most Evil Killers (S8 & S9: 40×60’), Jo Frost on Killer Kids (4×60’, produced with Nanny Jo Productions), and Murdered in the Line of Duty (3×60’) – together with Woodcut International. With a lineup of more than 50 FAST channels, 7plus is the fastest growing premium free streaming platform in Australia, with consumption +58% YOY. Live viewing is driving this growth, up 84% YOY, with On Demand consumption +30% YOY. 7plus now has 15.4 million verified registered users, with 1.4 million new user registrations secured in 2025.

Richard Henson, Director Distribution & Content Partnerships at Seven Network, says: “FAST on 7plus has surged in 2025, with exceptional growth that reflects the platform’s commitment to premium content, simplicity of navigation and the value of free streaming. Streamed FAST channel minutes are now +68% YOY, with an average monthly audience of 618,000, up 18% YOY.” 

Kelly Wright, KI’s MD of Distribution, says, “Australia’s VoD services and FAST channels are going from strength to strength, so we are excited to be cementing our partnership with 7plus to launch Trucking Hell, our second FAST channel together.”

Elaine Hackett,  Founder, CEO and CCO, Crackit TV adds, “Having witnessed the success in the UK and globally for our Trucking Hell brand, we and our commissioning broadcaster in the UK, 5, are delighted that a FAST channel is being launched for fans of Trucking Hell in Australia.”
