Going by the V6/TV360 guides over the months, it's a tradition. :D

So true, guides have aways been the worst.

Even the press release was delayed
https://news.virginmediao2.co.uk/vir...no-extra-cost/

Suggests they will be introducing more updates and features throughout the year, hopefully one is a multi room option.

Make you own mind up on which one you trust:

A) The "I" newspaper is reporting:

Talk’s owners News UK have made an audacious approach to buy GB News.

*GB News has rejected approaches from Rebekah Brooks, News UK CEO.
*I Sources suggested “conversations” had taken place between TalkTV & GB News owners but no formal bid on table yet.

B) Talk TV may close

It appears that they are evaluating the future of the channel and that Piers gets to enjoy some "gardening leave" on YouTube. :D

VM is now selling Mega TV bundles in nexfibre areas via Stream boxes. I assume that this is a new development following the additional channels that were added to the Stream service earlier this month.

VM aren't doing the best job of showcasing what they have to offer.

I was having a look at their website earlier and out of the '190+' TV channels in the 'Bigger Combo bundle' the 6 channels that they have chosen to highlight are Sky Showcase, MTV, Gold, Comedy Central, W and Drama.

Given that W and Drama are both free channels, they are hardly the best at showing the value of a pay TV package costing £49 per month.

Channels like Alibi, Discovery, National Geographic or Crime + Investigation would all be much better choices.
