Yes, if I had to guess I would go for a mistake on the sky website.

Perhaps they should hire the one and only Muppetman to put things right for them.

Re: SKY F1 HD Channel, Any Chance?

Am I missing something?
That link (for me) showed the Sky Sports F1 and Sky Sports F1 HD icons in the V.M. column.
It looks like cable viewers will be able to get to see the Sky Sports F1 channel after all.
So whats the "mess-up"?

The mess-up is the Sky Sports F1 HD icon. We know that Virgin are only getting the SD channel.

Well I have great news for you, you don't have to buy a 3DTV and so you won't be wearing those "silly" glasses in your living room .

I on the other hand will be sitting in my living room listening to F1 in 5.1 and hopefully watching a few races in 3D wearing my "silly" glasses.

Although I suspect I do look very cool in my silly glasses,

There is a place for 3D it is called the cinema, where you can watch in your silly glasses in the dark

I must admit I have been know to partake in viewing a couple of Cineworlds offering's

I'd like 3D, but I can't justify replacing my 42" HD TV, just to buy a 3D one.

You can actually get 3D TV's that you don't need glasses for. The 3D isn't quite as good though.

Re: SKY F1 HD Channel, Any Chance?

F1 wont be on Sky 3D this season anyway or even next season so the people that say they will be watching F1 in 3D will be disappointed

---------- Post added at 11:20 ---------- Previous post was at 10:56 ----------

Just looked at VM EPG for Sky Sports F1 and it looks like the 1st show for us on the channel is on Sat 10th March at 10am which is the Formula 1 Magazine Show. It shows on 9th March coming soon. Does this mean we get channel 1 day later or is it that VM need to update the EPG?
