Could the three channels labelled 650, 651 and 652 be news channels? I have a hunch.

650. RT
651. CGTN
652. Channels 24

Has anyone noticed Internal Q on channel 217? Looks like Quest HD to me!

It’s going to be something good, not a price rise

Media Boy sources has reveal that "Premier Sports SD will cease broadcasting on Wednesday 18th July 2018 on Virgin Media UK. It will be replaced by Premier Sports HD on channel 551 on the EPG."

Hey MB, is this the big story? Just want to make sure I'm not lagging behind.

Is Premier Sports part of the XL/VIP pack?

I believe it is a standalone pay an extra £10pm on any package - of course that may now be higher as it is in HD

That's the second time on Virgin Media an SD channel (Bloomberg the other) has been removed and replaced with the HD version and it's looking like Paramount Network will only launch in HD.

Perhaps the start of a new trend for some broadcasters to gradually phase out SD channels for HD versions.
