Viva should continue on cable and satellite when Spike launches. It is just on Freeview that Spike will displace Viva.

This relates to the LG Horizon box, I wonder if this will eventually come to the TiVo? I'm surprised that LG haven't taken any steps to replace TiVo with their own Horizon STB.

Cant believe you guys are actually excited about this channel, ffs it shows top stuff like "Who's Your Dawg?"!!!

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

I'm interested due to this:

http://espn.go.com/boxing/story/_/id...ries-announced

"Spike TV, which has been involved in combat sports as a television home to Bellator MMA and Glory kickboxing, will air boxing for the first time as part of Haymon's deal to purchase time on the network. Spike TV will carry a minimum of 33 monthly cards on Friday nights -- nine this year with 12 more apiece in 2016 and 2017. The network also said that if all goes well, additional cards might be added."

As a boxing fan I'd love to see Spike TV in the UK broadcast these shows. I'm not holding out much hope but if they do it'll mean some of the the biggest names in boxing being showcased on free to air TV. Not for everyone I know but it would be huge for boxing.

Did you watch the boxing last Saturday on Channel 5 Chad? I've been told that the Continuity Announcer warned viewers beforehand that "this programme may include violence"!!!

It also shows live coverage of events such as E3.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

It's website just says Freeview 8 and nothing about Virgin (or Sky). However, its wiki entry says it will be on VM this month. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Centre_TV

TiVo have bought some assets from the bankruptcy sale of Aereo. I wonder if this will benefit VM TiVo customers at all?

Got an email confirming sky movies had been added on my package for the free month in march. Yet nothing has arrived... Anyone got any ideas or is it the dreaded phone call?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

When did you phone up to get it added? as it should have been added by now Vince.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Don't forget that they will be relying on inertia or forgetfulness to get you to continue paying for it afterwards. Also, Sky will not allow anything that you recorded to be viewed after movies are taken off your subscription ;)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

That's because its premium first run movie subscription rights , if I cancel Netflix or Amazon I'm no longer able to view the content.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

According to the BBC Big Centre TV will be on Virgin channel 159 by the end of March
