Discovery UK are removing Discovery channel!

According to Radio Times, we are going to be losing access to the Discovery Channel within a month, how will we be compensated if this happens? As I'm guessing we should get a replacement channel to take its place http://www.radiotimes.com/news/2017-01-26/discovery-uk-is-threatening-to-pull-its-channels-from-sky-...

Not exactly official. Discovery say unless Sky pay more they won't stay, Sky are saying they won't pay anymore and will let the channels leave. Just last minute negotiations spilling out in to the public.
