Thanks for your valuable feedback guys.

Yep I'm already a subscriber of a Virgin Media TV and Broadband bundle. It's been so long since I set the box up I couldn't remember the analogue bypass.

Okay I checked channels 1-5 via my 'digital channels' using my Virgin TV guide and they are all there - happy days.

So far only 2 of my analogue channels have got the message - but it makes sense now, that the analogue versions of channels 1-5 are an entirely different kettle of fish from the digital versions of channels 1-5 available via 'Guide'.

So long as my Virgin TV 'digital' channels 1-5 continue to work I'll be happy enough! Just a bit fiddly having to set the timer-thing on Virgin TV for it to change channel in order to record a variety of programmes across channels 1-5 in the course of an evening.

No doubt, once the analogue channels go completely, there'll be a lot of pensioners wondering why their metal coathanger aerial is no longer working for them when they sit to watch the latest episode of Emmerdale!

Thanks again!
