If Sk1 HD turns up we will have to start calling him deep throat. It will seem like he has inside knowledge.

Keep up the good work MB.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010)

OK i've got a question, sorry if this has already been asked, but, with all this "channel hooping" going around i noticed yesterday that they have missed out 2 channels in the sports section:

Sky Sports 1 - Channel 511
Sky Sports 2 - Channel 512
Sky Sports 3 - Channel 513
Channel 514
Channel 515
Sky Sports 4 - Channel 516

Does this indicate that they will be adding more sports channels into the 2 free channels, or that person that added sky sports 4 pressed 6 instead for 4!?

I live in north Hampshire it it matters!

Cheers

Mike

SKy Sports 4 was Sky Sports Extra and has only recently changed. I imagine that Virgin will change it at some point possibly with all the other changes

Sky Basic HD Channels on Virgin TV update.

An Virgin insider has told me that talks are ''ongoing'' over the non Sports and Movies Sky own HD Channels coming to Virgin Media.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010)

Five fails to secure Freeview HD capacity.

Don't hold your breath waiting for Five HD on any platform. From OFCOM:

Ofcom has today published its final decision on the reservation of capacity on Multiplex B for an additional High Definition (HD) service on Digital Terrestrial TV (Freeview)
