Doubt we'll get it since the head of tv acquisitions for vm appears to be dead or missing somewhere. Since he can't even get free view channels...

The head of content acquisitions is currently making his way back to the UK. He's in Switzerland at the moment. :) http://www.broadbandtvnews.com/2016/...d-pbs-america/

Meanwhile, Virgin Media has been busy licensing out its content. It has struck a deal to sell Red Rock from its TV3 channel in Ireland to the BBC. To be fair, this is a good channel for this type of programming. Consider the uproar if it had been sold to Sky Atlantic! http://www.digitalspy.com/soaps/red-...claimed-drama/

Have you seen this (From your link)?

Quote:

Zamary said that the company is also in conversations about brining its channel to Africa, which would give it a global footprint. She also added: “we are looking into launching our channel on other platforms such as Liberty Global and KPN across Europe.”

No confirmed launch date yet on the TiVo's Hayu app.

As of today no new NBC Universal channels are testing on Virgin Media UK (E! HD, E! +1 and Universal Channel HD).

---------- Post added at 16:14 ---------- Previous post was at 15:57 ----------

From Saturday Sky Showcase and Sky Showcase HD will be rebrand as Sky Jurassic and Sky Jurassic HD on both Virgin Media UK and Virgin Media Ireland.

I got an email today worded as if hayu is available now.
Says it is on Channel 210 and press the red button.
Can also download the app or use the website.
Over 3,000 episodes of your favourite reality shows....

I'm at work and not in a position to do any of those things but seems it is live now?
