Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
i'd love to see Eurosport HD it's not Sky owned so I would have thought it would be easier to get on the network.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
unlikely DC_FC79, its probably gone bust. Was a bad channel. I'd love to see eurosport HD too as the normal channel looks awful, widescreen and fairly decent hd quality would make it far more watchable, shame it wasnt on virgin for the olympics last year
mediaboy, do you mean 5 extra channels in addition to it's current BBCHD and OnDemand channel? As they only announced that 4 new channels were coming within 3 months a few weeks ago.

They will be like BBC HD. The news from last month says that Virgin Broadcast TWO HD Channels on they network.
I think they will be:
ITV HD - Rumoured on DS Forums as testing right now.
Channel 4 HD - Virgin got the rights to broadcast this channel.
Plus Two or Three other HD channels - I have no ideal of the channels names.
