I'd quite like trutv just purely for the fact it's something I haven't got rather than any need or want for it

Media Boy HQ thinks TruTV may launch on Virgin Media next year as the last deal was signed in January 2013.

Before that the last deal was signed in 2010.

Was told earlier today that the Travel Channel +1 may be joining VM if negotiations are successful.

Personally i'd find this occasionally useful for dealing with recording clashes.

Who owns this channel? Do they have any other channels that we are missing that might come at the same time (wasn't told that this would happen, but you never know).

Thanks. Didn't Scripps buy the VM share of some channels that are co-owned by the BBC?
