Unless maybe adding them to 'Virgin on Demand' or putting them on Discovery channels.

I totally agree. And a lot of All3Media's content is available on 4OD. I guess it's for the long term.

It is useful having an up to date list repeated regularly, but it is working out what has changed that is the problem IMHO. This would enable us to take note of the changes and then scroll straight on to the next post.

Spot on!

If I started to do that my Signature link would be out of date 80% of the time.

I do have an summary list on my blog.

I think you're doing a good job of being politically correct there. BUT the elephant in the room is, we don't go through the list because there's never anything of interest in it.

What we actually have to do is scroll past it again and again despite him being asked again and again to stop doing it.

It's like someone taking a -MODEDIT- in your living room all the time.

One link to his blog, in a three-line post is all that is required to inform anyone that is interested of an update.

In my humble opinion JustABloke I do not agree with you....

Please remember to remain civil and try to stay on topic.

OK enough!!!

No more arguments, stick to the topic or else infractions will be issued.

The channel looks like from going by the guide that it is a news channel for the forces.

if that is the case then its a shame as think it could be a good channel.

Don't just write it off as a news channel, it will eventually be showing sport and documentaries too.

Gametrailerstv could be launching soon on vm/sky/bt?
Not sure yet if this is a whole channel or just a programming slot on channel5 but source seems to think it will replace 5+24.

SKY Sports 5 has arrived on the SKY EPG:

At least we know it's not a red button channel, like SKY Sports Xtra, and will be broadcast in HD.

It's good news for SKY and Virgin customers who love sport in HD. I was worried it was going to be a sham channel, tucked away via the red button, rather than a linear channel.
