Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 3.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 3.
 

Media Boy reveal name of announcement he know of.

I can now reveal that the announcement I was on about on Monday was the BT Sports announcement.

But I was told 'not to post' this announcement until 3.20pm today.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 3.
 

And what is the announcement, and that blows the Sky Atlantic ideas out of the water a bit

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 3.
 

I think Sky Atlantic will come as well, replacing ESPN in the XL tier

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 3.
 

I was told last weekend 'more than one announcement' is set to be make by Virgin Media in the Coming weeks.

Only BT was confirmed.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 3.
 

that's great news that the one I wanted :D:D:D:D

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 3.
 

So when will we hear, that's the big question now

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 3.
 

I think 'By August 1st'.

No package info was given.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 3.
 

so both Sky Atlantic and BT rumors which were orginally posted on here afew weeeks ago look like they're true

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 3.
 

They was not confirmed then.

-BT was confirmed to me last weekend.
-Sky Atlantic has not been confirmed from any insiders that I know of yet. But Broadcastnow reported weeks ago that Virgin and Sky are in talks over the channel.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 3.
 

Thanks MB, do you know if It's all of the channels, i.e. BT sports 1 & 2 and ESPN and the HD versions, would hate to be stuck with just SD like SS3, 4 and F1

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 3.
 

No channel info was given - need to wait for info coming via Virgin for that.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 3.
 

Why 3:20pm?

Is it bad luck to announce anything before 3:20pm...is 3:19 soooo old fashioned.

Why not not before 4pm?..or 3pm?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 3.
 

The ban on posting that info was only lifted at 3.20pm today by my insider who told me last weekend.

I needed the goahead to post from them.
