This forum does alot more than just cater for Cable users....

Re: Virgin Media & UKTV+ITV Channels
 

Everything seems to be up and running my end. Why are they saying everything will be back monday? Seems everything is back already! Great news though. Classic Eastenders is on UKTV. Accompany that with classic coronation street on itv 3 and you have a wonderful combination of historic quality television. Much better than the dross both shows have these days

Re: Virgin Media & UKTV+ITV Channels
 

Well this has all worked out very well ! New contract with an £18 discount and an extra £50 credit because of this ! :) Doubtless lots others got simlar too .

Well played VM :D :D

Its better for them to cover all eventualities Vince.

Bang on, but be careful you may get the strap...…..;)

Re: Virgin Media & UKTV+ITV Channels
 

I wonder whether UKTV will show some catch ups for episodes missed for new TV series like Harrow. Episode 1 was recorded and episodes 2 and 3 were missed. Episode 4 is showing on Sunday but the Series Link has yet to decide to record it.

Re: Virgin Media & UKTV+ITV Channels
 

Anyone who got a discount for the loss of these channels are quids in. Or will there be another twist? Do they take the discount back.

Checks Maggy’s IP. Yep it’s an internet connection from..... Virgin Media Broadband... :dozey:

Paul, me and others are also on VM. But being on the team doesn’t necessitate the requirement to be a VM customer.

Re: Virgin Media & UKTV+ITV Channels
 

They won't be doing that..

Re: Virgin Media & UKTV+ITV Channels
 

I don’t. :D

To be fair I did for some time, even after I moved off net, and I only left when they closed their off net ADSL service. If I moved back to a cabled area I’d rejoin in a flash. They’re worth it for the fast internet alone, quite apart from whatever TV they carry.

Re: Virgin Media & UKTV+ITV Channels
 

Good point Den. I assume the on demand/catch up tv stuff arrives on Monday? Haven't watched any of the channels which launched to replace the UKTV stuff. Saw Paramount tv is basically the gilmore girls tv and premier sports and free sports were .... well not particularly good.

Re: Virgin Media & UKTV+ITV Channels
 

I don't think it will have been quite that late as the new channel guide showed details of BBC Worldwide and the channels had to be technically added back to the system after being removed a few days after being hidden from domestic VM users.

Re: Virgin Media & UKTV+ITV Channels
 

Well I can keep my recordings indefinitely now! It will be interesting what extra OD content there is as sometimes you find a show you haven't seen without necessarily having recorded it

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2018)
 

Yes, it's interesting that VM now appear to be adding pay HD channels to packs below Full House. AIUI, the HD channels higher up the packs get a share of the subscription money. UKTV appear to have put this secondary to making their HD channels available to more customers.

This is what Sky did when their channels came back for popular series that had already started. I'm not too worried about the eight series that I missed having gaps in them, it's not the sort of programming that has to be watched in chronological order and the V6 should pick up the missed episodes when they are repeated.
