Can't find it ever being on 525.

Back in 2013 when I was making the EPG list for my blog wikipedia was reporting at MUTV was on channel 525.

Will fix it later.

I have data from 2006. Then it was on channel 44, 410 or 530, depending on where you lived. :D

I know, I checked back to 2004 (I think) but the fact that Telewest, NTL & C&W legacy channel numbers were in use made posting them a bit pointless.

I've got listings for 716 up to Sunday. 715 also has listings from Monday. Probably just a delay in getting the listings

Since they pay Sky per subscriber I doubt take up concerns Virgin at all.

The football season is over, probably a carrot to encourage folk to keep Sky Sports for 3 months.

Oh right. So the DCMS will decide the time isn't right and move the goalposts to 2045?

To be fair they should just put these channels out of their misery right now.
