Still what are they talking about the weather :LOL: :LOL:

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

TYPICAL SKY! By up the virgin channels, close them down, and move the content to Sky Exclusive channels!

Virgin really shouldve put a clause in whereby sky would have to give access to the new channel...

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

How do you know that they didn't? it's only rumour that Sky atlantic is exclusive to Sky.

Mind you, if they didn't put that clause in, or something similar, their negotiating team are idiots. It was Sky they were negotiating with, after all!

The NBC Universal deal sounds pretty decent, any ideas if there will be full series of shows or just odd episodes from series (like vod tends to have)?

Exciting stuff :rolleyes:

On cable still showing on epg Test 104 BBC One HD coming soon - showing on demand/filmflex ads.

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

How many other test channels are showing on cable ?

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

Digital Spy haven't helped by misquoting the Sky Press release.

The Press release is ambiguous.... but to me, it implys that you'll only be able to get those shows on Sky Atlantic.

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

other tests still showing

Test 42
Test 43
Test 44
Test 45

all showing ondemand ads

as spiderplant quoted before"they are for testing the network, and don't relate to any real channels. They will be removed when the tests are complete."

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

.....and when the last batch of tests ended, Sky's HD film and sports channels appeared. By the way, these 4 tests were the last 4 of the dozen plus tests that became Sky's HD channels. These test channels have been around for ages now, they are not new.

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

There's nothing ambiguous in the press release - the HBO shows and Mad Men will only be broadcast in the UK on the new channel Sky Atlantic. But nowhere does the Sky press release say that Sky Atlantic will be exclusively on Sky's platform - that's Digital Spy suggesting that, not Sky. And Digital Spy is not the most reliable source.

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

Now That Sky Has Rebranded Living To Sky Living For Next Year What Is Going To Happen To Living It, Living Loves and Living HD?. PS any news on Demand Five?

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

sky LIVING
sky LIVING +1
sky LIVING HD
sky LIVING 2
sky LIVING 2 +1
sky LIVING 2 HD

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

1 day sky will take over every channel and it will say sky what ever channel you watch you cant get away from it :D:D

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

Looking around on the internet it seems Virgins main announcement Wednesday will be about 100 meg internet , so wouldn't expect to much in the way of HD announcements , but hope I'm wrong.
