Sky Vegas close as an TV Channel on 12 April 2011.

Wikipedia says The channel was rebrand as Sky Bet on that date but Sky Vegas is still online.

Base on information I saw in July 2014 Sky Sports News HQ HD is set to launch on Virgin Channel 511 - The channel number was confirmed on the list given to me for the new Sky channels numbers this past July.

Media Boy HQ thinks Sky News HD will launch on Virgin Channel 603.

I was listing those that we might get when Sky News HD & Sky Sports News HD starts. Sadly, I don't think SA will be amongst them.
