What was sarcasm, right? I hope so, anyway.

Virgin Media. Can you add some proper channels, please. You know, which decent programmes and stuff :)

Does that even count as a channel launch, as I'm sure they are just rebranding the Q channel.

I know of TWO new channels coming next week:

Ailbi HD on Virgin Channel 131* and 4seven launching on Channel 195.

*Ailbi +1 to move to Channel 194.

I am sure that there could be a joke if this channel was launching at the same time as the Olympics streams:erm:

It's the correct date according to my Freeview box :)

4Seven (no r ;)) launches on 4/7(/12) on Ch 47 (on Freeview!)

Nice.

I think with Ailbi HD launching on July 3rd on Virgin Channel 131 we may see Ailbi +1 moving to Channel 194 on Tuesday or Wednesday so that Virgin can tell viewers of the move ahead of July 3rd.

Tivo related question to Alibi move. Will it pick up the move of +1 ?
( I have records set on this) Hence the reason I like +1 channels !

I'm assuming that was intentional ;)

Yes it will. This is one of the nice things about Tivo and something that I do not think either the V+ or Sky+ do.

ETA:

To clarify... any SLs on the original, SD, channel or it's +1 will be fine. You will, of course, have to manually re-create any SLs if you want them on the HD variant.

I agree with the poster on here who said it would be nice to watch Rizzoli and Isles in HD. Not sure whether it is Angie Harmon or Sasha Alexander I am looking forward to seeing in HD more.
