ITV4 to extend transmission hours.

ITV has confirmed that ITV4 will extend its broadcast hours from June 7th and drop the early morning simulcast of GMTV2.

I certainly hope so but perhaps on-demand only for any HD offering(s)?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II
 

Contacted STV about STVHD launch date/info:


Thank you for your email.

STV HD has been announced and will initially be available via Digital Terrestrial (DTT) HD and Virgin cable. As digital switchover progresses, the DTT service will become universally available though we appreciate this will take some time. However, STV will be part of the advance network, bringing HD on DTT to over half of Scottish homes served by the Black Hill transmitter immediately.

We absolutely want to have STV HD on satellite too and are working with Sky, Freesat and ITV Network with a view to the service being available soon. Hopefully we will be in a position to announce further developments shortly.

Thank you for your interest in STV HD - we are working hard to get the service up and running as soon as possible.

Which makes perfect sense to me although they will endeavour to ensure that you sporty types have the best available tennis and footie for the big tournaments during the summer. By available I mean currently available to and practicable for VM to provide at this time. Don't post any replies with "will we be getting up skirt shots of the women's final like they do with the red button on Sky Sports 69?" (please excuse the adult content used purely to affirm the point :blush:).

Having seen some trailers for CBS Drama at the weekend, I would like to see the full CBS suite 'Coming Soon ...' as well as the Five(r, USA) time-shifts.

Could be a good autumn once we're all digital only, NGTV, Nagra 3, HD etc. In the meantime, get out there and enjoy the summer and give VM a breather!

More like going soon (rather than coming soon) :(

If you watch this, it is almost an analogy for the TV thieves being knocked off the network at the flick of a switch. (Apologies for the slighlty off topic reply

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II
 

Five seems reasonable, but Sky's HD offerings are well overpriced, unless I've missed something (Living HD for Sky 1 HD?) this seems unlikely.
