Only one show looks remotely interesting and that's the one with Steve Austin.
I'm not going to write off the channel just yet going to give it a bit of time to see what it offers in a couple of months time.

What.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 3
 

Redneck island. My mind went blank at time of posting lol.

Also WWE Network UK launch has been announced for 1st October.
Rumours are saying it'll be £7p/m.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 3
 

But no news was given on where it will launch:

-Online?
-Sky?
-Virgin Media?
-IPTV?

Also WWE.com is reporting WWE Network will launch in UK by October 1st. But JBL did say October 1st live on Sky Sports 2 last night.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 3
 

October 1st is a Wednesday no shows are shown on Wednesday as far as i'm aware.
No info was given on what platforms it'll be on, i think we're going to get the global version which is the USA version.
Canada version is tied in with a cable company as they threw huge ammounts of money at it to get it exclusive i don't think Sky will do the same.
What i think will happen is ppvs will remain on Sky box office for the casual watchers whilst the Network will also show the ppvs too for it's subscribers and the fans of the brand.
Sky will still show RAW and Smackdown exclusively in the UK, but shows such as NXT, main event will be on the network followed by Sky.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 3
 

If the US is anything to go by, the PPV's are still on cable (certain providers) and so are the main progs as well, guessing it's down to a contract so would imagine sky will show it here on PPV for people who don't have an account.

As for the platform, i would guess it would be online as well and like the US an app to download for your tablet, console, and various smart TV's. people are accepting streaming services now with Netflix/Lovefilm getting a decent market.

£7pm is not that bad a deal considering sky sells PPV's for around £15

VM are advising customers via facebook that Tru TV is now on the EPG, & if they are not getting it by the end of the day they should re-boot their box.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 3
 

So sky news will no longer be on sky sports 1 HD?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 3
 

that will fill a little gap to HD channel launches

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 3
 

Indeed, might I suggest that we no longer need it;)
