I do use the +1 channels occasionally when recording but I must admit to being very underwhelmed by the quality and content of the channels they are adding.

did you actually ask them if they were going to broadcast these channels or did they tell you list this without asking ?

Until they arrive i'll hold me breath

Body in Balance need your help to get into Virgin Media.

Do you want Body in Balance on Virgin Media?

If so you need to sign an online Petition via their Website.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)

so it's come to this, as if the customers wanting more channels wasn't enough, the channels themselves are shouting at virgin media to be added! ...ashame its yoga though but im sure there's loads people that would enjoy it.

...bring back Mr.Motivator (he ROCKS )

I'm definitely against this idea, unless they also add one about grass growing

Half-seriously, how do some of these "channels" cover their costs? Content, production, carriage, etc. are not free, so who's paying for them?
