An Virgin Media worker has pm me today to tell me that Virgin Media moved E4 +1 onto the M package in Ex-Telewest areas in August 2009.

From what l read on this forum, that VM have got a lot more channels coming onto the system, and that there is 999 appearing on some boxes, l have checked that l see that BBC1Scotland is coming also, IS this channel coming on the whole system or just for Scotland.

everyone will get the same channels once the rollout of NGTV is complete.... The BBC Nations will be in the 800's.

Signed up today as this site is such a useful source of information, mainly down to Media Boy so thank you for your hardwork and constant updates.

One quick question that has no doubt already been answered - what are the chances of Virgin Media getting Sky Sports HD? ESPN HD has wet my appetite but don't want to join Sky to get Sky Sports HD if there is feint possibility Virgin may get the rights.

Media Boy - Do you have a twitter account for all the latest updates?

But joking aside I have no news on Sky Sports HD coming anytime soon - see post one for all the listed I have got.
