Problem seems to be Virgin customers seem to have been dodging loads of channels that other providers carry over the last couple of years. Although we seem unable to avoid price rises 3 times a year

Anyone else get a flier through the door today advertising BLAZE and telling you to re-tune your Free view box? No mention of it being on Sky or Virgin (although the latter doesn't surprise me!)

That statement used to be the case but in the last year we've caught up.

There has been some improvement, but I wouldn't go as far as to say we've caught up!

It's true that we've not got the same number of channels as Sky has but we've caught up on channels like Universal HD, the Sony channels and Spike, the latter which just seemed to pass VM by when it was launched. But we're ahead of Sky in apps :D and equal with them on the frequency of price rises. :(

Babenation (featuring Babestation) has launched on channel 981.

Black screen with a banner saying the channel is locked and you need to enter your PIN to watch.

As it's an adult channel it should automatically be hidden if you've selected that option.

Just checked the listings basically just a freeview channel showing A+E's older shows from its pay channels.

Basically on VM and Sky most will have seen the content if they wanted long since.

More Pawn Stars seriously how many channels is that available on ?
