Notice a theme there? This has been very carefully planned by VM for months.

Which is typical of them.

Arthur does not do facts he only does rants :).

Wedding TV is very good at first, but gradually there's a wearing down process, and kids TV and mortgage TV take up more of your time.

Eventually there tends to be a drift towards mistress TV which can screen some first runs but can also lead to increased numbers for viewing Divorce TV.

There is apparently a channel coming soon called perpetual bliss but it's participation audience is expected to be extremely low. :D:D

Down here in Brighton we currently have no channel on 531, the only change we have is on channel 530 which is calling itself MUTV Slate, no picture though, and 528 which now appears to be the new MUTV channel.
Does anybody know what MUFC Slate is?:confused:

Just a placeholder to let you know where the channel has gone, as in clapper board slate

Media Boy EXCLUSIVE: Things to look out for this week.

Virgin Media may give us some news on Racing UK, Arsenal TV and Liverpool FC TV some time this week.

I think Racing UK and Liverpool FC TV will be removed from the XL Pack and be relaunch as Two Standalone channels.

Arsenal look set to axe their TV Channel and go Web Only when Setanta Sports UK sell Arsenal TV's Sky EPG Channel.

Also Virgin Media will be announcing their Second Quarter 2009 results on Thursday at 8am UK time.

oh why can't someone pick up the Blue Square Premier rights? I read that towards the end of the season, Setanta were getting nearly as many viewers to that than they did for SPL, so would have thought someone would have picked it up. Possibly ITV4 or Channel 5, if no ESPN.

I have no news on the rights to BSP but I find out anything I will let everyone on know via this thread.

I read somewhere it was rumoured that Eurosport were after the BSP rights. Just a rumour though.
