Great news but note they are 'UK versions'. All the good shows on those channels already have UK broadcasters, so they won't be able to show those. Still, we may get some of the shows that don't make it to the UK.

.
Given that Alibi are dropping further seasons of White Collar, that could be a show that could be shown.

Why is this a big thing, the only change I can see is that they have added England to the name, why are people making this out to be that they have all moved (which is kinda needed when BBC Two HD is so far away when 119 and 120 are available...

This would be good, but I can see most of the shows are already taken including Arrow, Modern Family (by both USA and ABC), but it will be good to see these channels, Im having to leave the ease of Virgin Media behind in 2014 as I move over to the states.

-FOX + may launch tonight.
-Huge EPG shake up coming very soon.

Also - Channel 700 has launched today.
Fingers Crossed on Fox+, this is the 3rd time in 3 weeks!

A Huge EPG Shake Up is much needed, never understood why Sky1, the flagship Sky channel is behind Sky Living and Sky LivingIt, but the HD versions of non-hd swappable channels need to be moved closer to the bottom

My my we are getting rather defensive and picky with that last comment oh great one.

What they'll probably do aswell as show the stuff that uk broadcasters don't pick up they'll probably show re-runs of shows too such as CW may show Vampire Diaries from season 1 etc.

Because the platform with less than 5 million subscribers may be able to offer them the start up costs they need to launch in the UK where as the platform with 10 million+ customers might not provide them with such money as they do not see it benefitting their customers.

Visited my Grandad, he has a V HD box. Flicked to Tiddlers TV, 'Red' the little guy who wanders about at the bottom of the screen points to the red button icon which takes you to the OnDemand content.
Got home and my TiVo has no red button icon, pressing red wont work either???

Working on TiVo here.

You get a menu and it loads the programme you select from the graphics - no OD load

Try giving it a reboot. Then go into Help & Settings -> Network, and do "Connect to Virgin Media Service".
