I wonder if Virgin will be adding this Sky pop up film channel?

It's just another Sky Cinema rebrand, this time of Sky Cinema Drama

Thanks, so it will be on Virgin EPG 410.

Let's hope that non Sky Cinema subscribers have access to it though like Sky and Now TV are.

So those reports were wrong then and it looks like it's just another bog standard Sky Cinema rebrand for those with a Now
Cinema pass.

I can't see it being available to non Sky Cinema subscribers on Virgin if they are charging their own Now customers for it.

As your source was gb news it doesn't surprise me that it's inaccurate. I wouldn't trust them to tell the time of day.

Look at the list of films in the link and then look ahead in the EPG for VM channel 410. They match up. So they ARE available for VM customers.

Overnight changes:
11 Kids channels were restored to the Kids pack, ending a free to view period.
Also multiple spurious SI data changes appeared. This seems to be a recurring problem with Virgin TV SI data & should be reversed eventually. The changes aren't significant and shouldn't have any impact on customers.

At a cost though.

No different to Sky and Now TV customers.

Indeed it has and the spurious data added overnight has been rolled back to what it was before. Spooky!
