it would be good if there was a wiki page with a table of channels on virgin and sky so we can compare which channels aren't on both.

Or just go to post one for the list of missing Channels broadcasting.

Teachers get paid on pro rata basis through-out the year, they don't all of a sudden get no wages over the 6 weeks of summer holidays, no?

I wasn't having a swipe at teachers getting paid holidays. Some of my best friends are teachers :)

I was referring to the fact that our taxes are obviously providing children with such an excellent grasp of English. You will probably have to read skyisdabest's other posts to see what I mean. I suppose these days they spend more time texting on their phones than writing in exercise books though.

Sorry I have taken the thread off-topic. :erm:

Don't forget we still have Eden+1 and yesterday+1 to come back to us yet, if itv2+1, itv3+1 and itv4+1 returns then Vm have signed a deal with itv and itvhd should be well on its way!
It's a shame that Vm haven't pursued a new contract with the CSC channels, there is a big bunch of half decent channels that could be added there like:

true movies 2
true entertainment
pop girl
pop girl+1
tiny pop+1
pop+1
flaunt
scuzz etc

Got to admit, having freesat does give me these channels anyway, but the channels I mentioned are probably some of the best channels on freesat that could come to cable. Other half decent ones are Travel Channel, movies4men is okayish some of the time, oh and Kix is quite a good kids channel, and quite geekish is the Renault channel which is quite niche!

The SD Channels I know of do not have any ITV Branded on them.
