There's clearly a legal reason for this sort of thing, it isn't something the viewers will normally notice, it doesn't affect channel names which they would notice.

Likely the same reason the Sony channels moved under the Columbia name in the last year.

Since last week I have found Universal TV is broadcast ads for shows on Sky branded channels (Sky Atlantic). I have just started to watch things dated May 2019.

I thought the idea of recordings was to skip the ads, MB! :D

I doubt that this will be of any great significance, MB.

Hello fans

Any idea where I can get a list of virgin media channels. My friend has gone from medium to XL and I want to brag about the extra channels he now has but he’s claiming he can’t spot the difference

Here you go.

There's obviously the web version here, and at the bottom, if you scroll right down, there's both a mobile and desktop pdf downloadable version.
