...and another rebrand in the not too distant future once the Warner Discovery co ownership kicks in.

I hear that Sky Sports Main Event Ultra HDR has today launched as a standalone (i.e. not red button) channel on Sky. You know what's coming... does anyone know when will this channel be on VM V6?

I am hearing that BT Sport is set to change it name to Discovery Sports once Warner Bros. Discovery joint venture with BT Group is completed.

Several programmes on Eurosport are already using 'Discovery Sport' captions and banners.

BBC3 & BBC4 failed to start at 7pm this evening, thus messing up the recordings I had of them as they started late.

No idea if this was down to the BBC or another Virgin cock up. I suspect a Virgin cock up as one of their (box generated?) 'This channel is currently unavailable' messages came up at the bottom.

BBC3 started on time on freeview.
