Cable Forum - General Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 1.

Actually no. In the US, HBO isn't just the drama and comedy we see on Sky Atlantic, but is a movie and sports channel too. The first run drama series are few and far between and there's no Mad Men, Seinfeld or any of Sky's own programming. If anything I'd say Sky Atlantic has better schedules than the original HBO (and HBO2) in the US.
But it doesn't have any ad breaks in the shows...

Nor me. Not my cup of tea at all, but I do hope it comes for those who want it.

Mines a Bovril I needed that at the football yesterday, I nearly got snow blindness ;) had to laugh the referee came from your neck of the woods Den, I heard that one fan shouted to him, " I hope you're not going to call the game off now that we are here and he replied After driving for 5 and a half hours to get here, there is NO way this match is being postponed" he is now a legend at Luton:D

I have Sky movies HD and I don't think I could bear to sit and watch a film with adverts in ever again, I have tried to watch film 4HD and can't, sky might get it but I bet everybody with Sky Movies won't watch it.

Basically not American television. With a few exceptions I really don't enjoy it. Atlantic therefore is a bit of a non-starter for me.
