The UK Snooker Championship 2017 gets underway on Tuesday November 28 and lasts until the final on December 10.

Here's how to make sure you don't miss any of the action from York.

UK Championship snooker: LIVE STREAM

The UK Snooker Championship first round is NOT broadcast by the BBC.

Their coverage begins on Saturday, December 2 when the second round of the competition starts.

But the action from the opening round of the event is still available online.

Bookmakers Betway are sponsoring the tournament, and are showing the action live on their website - to punters who have an account with them.

UK Championship snooker: ON TV

From Saturday, BBC2 will be the home of the UK Championship on TV.

The action will be shown across the network, with Red Button access meaning viewers can chose which table they choose to watch. 

Online viewers will also be able to be able to stream which matches they want to watch.

* It's worth noting that you'll need a valid TV Licence if you watch or record live programmes as it is a criminal offence in the UK to watch "live" television without a TV licence. You'll also need a TV Licence to download or watch BBC programmes on iPlayer. This applies to any device you use.
