there talking aload of mince, altohuhg the date is plausible due ot it being a tuesday ie launch date

CS always will say sometihng is coming if it gets you to buy more stuff or not leave, surpise they never said sky one hd is coming tomorrow (i am being sarky in case anyone thinks it true)

did you actually ask them if they were going to broadcast these channels or did they tell you list this without asking ?

Until they arrive i'll hold me breath

Body in Balance need your help to get into Virgin Media.

Do you want Body in Balance on Virgin Media?

If so you need to sign an online Petition via their Website.

so it's come to this, as if the customers wanting more channels wasn't enough, the channels themselves are shouting at virgin media to be added! ...ashame its yoga though :) but im sure there's loads people that would enjoy it.

...bring back Mr.Motivator (he ROCKS :D)

Quite.

They won't add any HD but they keep adding ultra niche junk like this. Great going Virgin.

I'm definitely against this idea, unless they also add one about grass growing ;)

Half-seriously, how do some of these "channels" cover their costs? Content, production, carriage, etc. are not free, so who's paying for them?

There not, that is the point the channel want you to ask virgin to allow them to join virgin tv setup not that virgin are trying to add it

I'll only watch Paint Drying +1, as I'm too busy with all the other crud.

Aren't Paint Drying, Paint Drying + 1, Grass Growing and Grass Growing + 1 the HD channels that were promised? I have been watching GG and GG+1 for quite a while (I do need to get my lawn cut).
