Initially there was a DAB digital station in London called Century London (originally owned by Capital Radio Plc) an offshoot of the (male biased) parent Century stations in the North of England. When the format of the other Century stations changed towards a female bias 'London' retained the older rockier (male) songs, but added the female friendly 'current' hits. After the station launched on Sky sometime later the music fell into line with the other stations and was rebranded Century Digital (also launching on DAB in Birmingham).
Following the sale of Century East Midlands to Chrysalis and the other Century stations to GMG Radio Century Digital became a GMG brand. Century Digital ceased transmission in London on 24 March 2007 and was replaced with sister station Real Radio (Digital).
