Will think about it for next update.

"Reality TV" wasn't owned by them anyway, it's just the name of a Cellcast channel carrying CBS Reality during the day and "Psychic Today" in the evening.

I'm thinking their plan could be to move storage wars etc onto the new reality channel and hopefully get historic programming on History.

l always thought that a History channel should present programmes about actual history but sadly in the last few years they have filled up the schedules with programmes that have no relation to history at all.

Virgin have acquired SmallWorld Cable. This could mean any channels on there not on VM could move over...

[source is the SmallWorld website, haven't got a link]

Ones that jumped out to me were AKA and Movies4men.
Oddly both of these channels were on my list to launch on VM this year, i wonder if this was what my source was refering too.
