I think no new channels will launch this week.

Due to the following:

When Sky Sports 1 HD and Sky Sports 2 HD was launch back in 2010 Virgin Media moved Sky Sports 4 and Sky Sports News to new home a day before hand.

Q: WHERE WILL SKY SPORTS 3 HD, SKY SPORTS 4 HD AND SKY SPORTS F1 HD LAUNCH ON VIRGIN MEDIA?

A: My insider has not given me the channel numbers for them yet (As of May 7th). But Media Boy HQ thinks the following may happen.

Plan A)
519. Sky Sports 3 HD
520. Sky Sports 4 HD
521. Sky Sports News HD
522. Sky Sports F1 HD
523. EuroSport
524. EuroSport HD

Or plan B)
501. Sky Sports 1
502. Sky Sports 2
503. Sky Sports 3
504. Sky Sports 4
506. Sky Sports F1
508. Sky Sports News
511. Sky Sports 1 HD
512. Sky Sports 2 HD
513. Sky Sports 3 HD
514. Sky Sports 4 HD
516. Sky Sports F1 HD
518. Sky Sports News HD

Sky Sports News HD would be a welcome addition.

---------- Post added at 17:21 ---------- Previous post was at 17:19 ----------

Plan B seems more likely.
