It was criminal when VH2 was axed in favour of MTV Flux and now that's died on it's feet I can't believe they are replacing that with MTV One +1

Bring back VH2

Re: Coming soon to Virgin Media 2008.

how about we don't have MTV One +1

If we need bandwidth then a lot of these +1 channels should be binned, no?

Re: Coming soon to Virgin Media 2008.

BREAKING NEWS:

I have got info tonight that Virgin Media are looking to start up Channel 4 HD, ITV HD and THREE other HD Channels within the year 2008.

Note: Channel 4 HD will start before August, Virgin are still in talks with ITV for their HD Channel.

The three unknown channels maybe the following:

Discovery HD
National Geographic HD
History Channel HD
