BBC One and BBC Two will be available to watch live on the internet from 27 November at the same time they are broadcast on terrestrial television.
Viewers will be able to view the 'simulcasts' by accessing the homepages for each channel on bbc.co.uk.
The service will also be available on the Beeb's on-demand online TV service iPlayer, alongside BBC content broadcast over the previous seven days.
