Media Boy EXCLUSIVE: Media Boy given EPG Channel numbers for some Movies Channels from next week.

I have seen the list of channels moving next week plus also their new EPG Channel numbers - They are as followed:

415. TCM (Was Channel 419)
419. Movies 24 (Was Channel 424)
420. Movies 24+ (Was Channel 425)
424. True Movies (Was Channel 428)
428. Film 4 (Was Channel 444)
429. Free Channel number (Film4 HD?)
430. Film 4+1 (Was Channel 445)

That seems odd, surely they would need 10 EPG spaces for the Sky Movies HD, what is going between 415-419? I'd say Flim4 HD is a good guess for 429.

Sky & Virgin Media have realised that Freeview is the common enemy of pay tv.

I'd expect the Virgin1 channel to be used on Freeview for Picnic.

There are only a few Sky HD movie channels.

Maybe they will put them after the other movie channels.

I think the statement was relating to how many Sky Movie HD channels Virgin would get. I doubt it would be all of them? Would be great if we did get them all! :)
