I'm putting it here as technically it is a streaming service kind off, BT have now added Discovery science and Discovery shed to their tv line up.

There's a new scam involving BT (and Sky) customers that might be of interest to you:

Unless i'm missing something, this new collaboration between National Express and Now TV means that new and existing customers can get a free one month Entertainment Pass:

I kinda wish they would. It would be nice to get everything under the same umbrella with billing and even better if someone could come up with a box that merges cable, netflix, amazon, now tv etc into one single UI. Sorta the way the Fire TV does with having the Netflix 'recommended' on the main interface, but better.

Already exist, kodi although it's not legit.
The closest to what you'd like would be a ROKU one would think it has nowtv, skystore, the main catch up services aka bbc,it,4od,my5, amazon,netflix,wuaki,sainsburys entertainment, you can add other channels via unofficial codes too such as filmon which will give you most freeview channels and no doubt tvplayer will arrive in time.

That's not what i mean, i mean a platform where you can just see everything from the different services rather than having to launch individual apps from within. I gave the example with the way Fire TV integrates Netflix in a small way, Kodi doesn't even do that so not sure why it's suggested.

It's just a pain in the ass keeping track of what's on where, what's getting a new episode on where, what needs to be paid when etc.

Ad yeah i know i'm asking too much :p:

If Amazon is added to the V6 (Not confirmed), it will possibly be the closest thing to what you're after; just lacking Now TV in the popular streaming services.
