Yup - the Springwatch stream via the Connected Red Button is an Internet one and not channel that's appeared

I thought so, although you really should quote the right poster Ben. ;)

I say, Virgin have recently been rather sneaky, launching channels on the platform without notifying MB! If VM carry on this way, you could be out of the job; Virgin could soon become a Captain Hook business.

Indeed, they do seem to be cutting poor old MB out of the picture with these recent additions. :shocked:

It's very vague and only really states that the BBC are looking at making BBC Four documentaries available in HD. Which could mean showing them on BBC Two, or could mean they will be shown on one of the new BBC HD channels planned for the additional freeview DVB-T2 multiplexes.

Well, that's certainly not going to happen across all platforms, unless they go for 1/4 resolution streams.

I do not care if Virgin is 'Cutting' me out.

I am just happy to see Virgin Media launching new channels.

I think of Virgin Media like an School:

Them who test and launch channels play in the big end of the school.
Them who help us when we call Virgin up play in the wee end of the school.

Maybe the big end of the school is not telling the wee end of the school about the new channel launches until launch day now.
