Yup, Dave was a great idea. Fiver might be just as good. I wonder if Sky One will change it's name to Dishy or something like that. |

Re: Coming soon to Virgin Media 2008.
I miss Sky 1 because, as I have said before, they have the Simpsons - but this w/e they also have 'The Colour of Magic' which I will miss 
I really like V+ - on demand TV is great, just I would prefer it if it had Sky 1 as well. |

That was from when it was on the system before. They just left the channel id there but it does not carry any Video and will not be. They are NOT testing any Linear HD.

Re: Coming soon to Virgin Media 2008.
The poster on Digital Spy forums says that Virgin Media have remove Sky Movies 2 from their Ex-ntl Analogue channel lineup in Wythenshawe.
So it look like Virgin are making room for new channels to appear on their Digital Network.
