Virgin Media signs new deal with Viacom?

With MTV Hits, MTV Base and Nicktoons moving to the L Package today I think we may soon see some/all of the following channels on Virgin TV:

BET
BET + 1
Comedy Central Extra + 1
NickToons Replay

Any details about testing will be restricted to those members of staff that need to know.

The rest find out usually at the same time as Customers i.e when there is a confirmed launch date

On the same thread as that Five HD screenshot, it is mentioned that PAFC TV is being tested too.

We would not be informed on broadband support about TV testing the same as they are unaware of broadband testing, but I do know about 5 HD.

That was a joke aimed at me :D I don't think we're likely to be seeing Plymouth Argyle FC TV anytime soon - sadly!

Anyone know if upcoming channels Five HD and FILM 4 HD will have
embedded digital on-screen graphics when showing HD broadcasts ?

Not keen on these D.O.G.S.

Why is it that these guys who've stolen from Virgin all these years are turning to Sky when the chipped boxes fail? Guilt? Or are the criminally inclined naturally lured to the dark side?
