Cable Forum - General Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 3

I see today that an channel has been added to Total Channel over night.

Media Boy HQ has no idea on what maybe added - as BT Sport Extra was set to launch today via the red button on TiVo.

Well, as the extra BBC Alba audio stream and BT Sport Extra services have now launched, I'm assuming that it's for truTV.

I remember VOX, it sometimes had questionablee content on late at night!, and the channel that had a little umbrella logo in the corner, well, it looked like an umbrella to me!

Actually, now I think about it, it can't be truTV as this is already broadcasting on VM off the EPG. I assume that the system counts all services, whether on or off the EPG, so it wouldn't make a difference. This must mean that something new has been added, possibly a hidden TV/radio channel.

I remember VOX, I liked the name and always thought that it would make a good name for a bar. It's latin for 'voice'. RTL1, RTL2, RTL5, Sat 1, Premier, Pro Sieben, EinsPlus, Phoenix are some I remember. The Mexican channel Galavision used to show bullfighting on Sunday afternoons :shocked:
