Your opinion obviously but many don't share that opinion in the wider populace.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2018)
 

I don't think many would disagree that the quality on the scheduled TV channels has gone down in recent years.

Having said that, the quality of some of the dramas on BBC, ITV and Channel 4 seem to have improved. Just not enough of them!

We see you have not voted.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2018)
 

Don't see how you can include all the UKTV channels as 'new' they have been around for years and were only off the platform for a few months.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2018)
 

"a few months" - UKTV was removed by UKTV from July 22nd to August 11th.

Also if rumours on the web is true UKTV will not be staying for much longer.

UKTV Channels are rumoured as set to be cut up as followed:

BBC Studios are set to own:
-GOLD HD
-W
-Alibi
-Dave
-Drama
-Really
-Alibi +1
-W +1
-GOLD +1
-W HD
-Dave HD
-Alibi HD
-Dave ja vu

Discovery will own:
-YESTERDAY
-YESTERDAY +1
-Eden
-Eden +1
-Eden HD
-Good Food
-Good Food +1
-Good Food HD
-Home
-Home +1

Rumours say the only thing holding them back from confirm the deal is Discovery wants Dave channel number on Sky for Quest.

All rumours as seen by Media Boy HQ on Broadcastnow and other web sites.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2018)
 

Given how the BBC is regarded in documentaries I'd have thought they'd want to keep some factual channels.

If I were splitting UKTV

BBC would get: GOLD, Dave, Drama, Yesterday, Eden
Discovery would get: Really, W , Alibi, Home, Good Food

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2018)
 

Another name change on the way. CBS Action becomes CBS Justice next month.

https://www.a516digital.com/2018/11/...s-justice.html

Just over nine years after it first launched on satellite, CBS Action will join Sony Crime, Sky Witness, Crime + Investigation and TruTV in focusing its content around the subject of crime. The switch is due to take place on the 5th December 2018.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2018)
 

ALL BT SPORTS SD channels are set to be axed on December 4th. But BT SPORT 4K UHD will move to channel 531 on December 4th.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2018)
 

That's progress!

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2018)
 

Let's hope this includes the Red Button streams too - but I doubt it.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2018)
 

Just to make clear .This applies to virgin only . sd is not being closed by BT. That said I wonder why SD is used along side HD on virgin services?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2018)
 

Up till recently, Virgin still had SD only boxes, so needed SD only versions of all HD channels. They don't now.
