Best Direct is a home shopping television channel, broadcast in the United Kingdom on the Sky Digital and Virgin Media platforms. Additionally the channel is available free-to-air on the Eurobird 1 satellite.

The Best Direct channel is owned and operated by Best Direct International Ltd. Best Direct International was formed in 1992; however, the roots of the company can be traced back to the late 1940s when William Levene (the father of the company's current chairman, Michael Levene) exhibited household products he had obtained worldwide at county shows, fairs and exhibitions.

An additional timeshift service (Best Direct +) was available solely on Sky Digital. 'Best Direct +' was renamed 'Blueberry TV' on the Sky EPG in November 2009.

From 16 September 2008, Best Direct was also broadcast on the Freesat platform (channel 813), but was discontinued on 21 April 2009.
