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.
---------- Post added at 21:46 ---------- Previous post was at 21:40 ----------
Those new adverts looks very swish.

Re: Coming soon to Virgin Media 2008.
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.
