Are VM now in the business of adding their own pop up channels? I've noticed that Ch 100 is today advertising 'VM TV Exclusives Showcase' from 10pm starting with Ash V Evil Dead.

In the past this has been a Barker or simulcast channel, but I've not known them to playout their own material on it before, in fact I didn't know they had access to playout facilities!
Virgin Media Showcase (Channel 100) is on over two nights Last Night and Tonight.

They have done this before with Comedy Central (It has it own material) and Hayu.

Maybe for all we know the hold up is all about Premier Sports HD.

We feel that Premier Sports deal is up in October.

Premier Sports was launch in time for the last Rugby World Cup in 2013.
