Vince VaughnUK TV station Channel 4 have announced that they have signed a deal with US TV and Film corporation Fox to show their entire back catalogue and all new films for the next two years on British television.

The deal includes, amongst many others, Dodgeball - the extremely silly but very funny sports comedy starring Vince Vaughn (left) and Ben Stiller.

The deal is allegedly worth around £150m, and is part of Channel 4 decision to make FilmFour a free-to-air channel in the summer. With around 1,000 films covered in the back catalogue, they've certainly got enough to choose from.
