OK. I wouldn't know that since I don't watch it, only knew about the reports saying it was closing in early summer.

The Talk TV programmes are all replaced with 'Live Feed' from 7am Monday and include programme data for a film/show called Live Feed. This programme info is an error though - the same thing happened for a few days when the clocks switched the BST.

I wonder if they will continue simulcasting Talk TV from their online service (which is to continue)?

If not it wouldn't surprise me if GB News took over the simulcasted hours vacated.

When was Radio 4 LW removed from Virgin?

As most are available on free streaming services it doesn't make a great deal of sense. Even less so when you realise that what is actually being encrypted is the Tivo / V6 red button portal / slate. :D
