No news on when others launches will happen bar S4C HD.

We have been given no info on channel numbers but with it only being for when Wales are playing in Euro 2016 we think Virgin Media UK will launch it on Virgin UK Channel 989.

BBC Red Button HD will have Channel 990.
and BBC Red Button 2 to 6 will start from Channel 992 to Channel 996.

Rumours says Sky Movies Greats will become known as Sky Movies Superheroes from June 7th.

For the next few weeks.

I would have thought the channel number might have a "4" or "16" in it to make it a bit more memorable.

Well BBC Three HD old slot is still free on Virgin Channel 163.

Two of out three ain't bad.

But that will mean S4C HD will be before S4C on the Virgin EPG.

That's possible. Putting a temporary part-time channel into the 900s would attract minimal viewers but 163 is a good number. But VM had better make up their minds soon.
Hopefully you'll be supporting England, MediaBoy, as Scotland aren't in the Euros on this occasion? ;)

Looking through this thread, it's pretty obvious that we ain't getting anything worth watching anytime soon, I am seriously considering dumping Virgin TV in favour of Sky, I'd keep the BB as it's excellent, but imo we are missing out on so many good shows on Atlantic, that I feel I may need to move, I know that I can get Now TV but the pq is pants.

I don't know, Max; there was a hint of more concentration on the TV side of the business in that recent Telegraph article. I'm pinning my hopes on that at the moment. Maybe some good news closer to Christmas....

But it's always Xmas, or coming soon, or when you speak to a Virgin agent you get the same old guff about being in negotiations with Sky OB, i'm just ****ed off about missing out on what I want to see, it really is frustrating!
