The best show on HBO without a shadow of a doubt is "The Bill Maher" show.

Looks like they're changing the layout of the menus according to that Flash video on the homepage. Looks more simplified.

Those new adverts looks very swish.

Current affairs and political satire at its best, well worth a watch.

Analogue Cable in Coventry

An poster on DS Forums is saying that Virgin Media are switched off his analogue TV service in Coventry in May.

So can anyone who life in Coventry ( Or know anyone who life ) tell me the following:

1) Is Coventry Ex-ntl or Ex-Telewest??
2) How many analogue channels do you get in Coventry??

Here is the link to that page that started this rumour: http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/forums/s...d.php?t=770573

Info from DS Forums.
