Greatest Hits TV is a British music television station that switched from Mushroom TV to UltimateHits Limited. The broadcast began on May 29, 2010 on Sky Digital's channel 378 under the channel name Lava .

Lava was a music station specializing in indie and alternative rock . Lava was supposed to be a platform for young rock and punk bands from the UK who were previously without a record deal. Lava was a sister channel of Channel AKA , which was also created by Mushroom TV, and replaced Rockworld TV , which was previously to be found on that slot. Both Lava and Channel AKA were interactive broadcasters that allowed viewers to choose the playlist using a voting system.

On April 26, 2011, the station was renamed Greatest Hits TV. Lava remains a segment of Greatest Hits TV and, as a Lava Showcase, now forms the nightly program block from 3 a.m. to 8 a.m.

On June 22, 2012, Mushroom TV filed for bankruptcy. In May 2012 the station was sold to UltimateHits Limited.
