I want to refer to this thread for information - I don't want to wade through endless posts bemoaning the absence of channels in comparison with Sky, I want to use it to find out which ones I can get with Virgin Media.

Ok well said :clap::clap::clap::clap:

Does anyone know if Demand Five is still testing or was that just a rumour?

I noticed that BT Vision stopped carrying the service in the past few days.

It was certainly showing in catch up as member posted screenshots in the previous coming soon thread who I think was on the Basildon headend, I know 'Cowboy Builders' was one of the programmes although he/she could not actually view it, most people reported that it was not showing on their stb's though, me included so it must have been a localised test.

Or asking when a particular channel is coming when all they have to do is look back to Media Boy's latest weekly summary to find the up-to-date situation.

And on that note, please can everyone stop posting off-topic posts detailing what they consider to be off-topic posts.
