Was that "rumour in general" or "rumour that VM were going to get the channel"? If the latter, it's not even available yet and you're moaning that it's not on VM? :rolleyes:

If I mis-understood and it's the former than I apologise :)

The channel isn't currently available in the UK I believe.

Yes, I know that. I said that. I was trying to figure out whether dephone was having yet another swing at VM for something that isn't, in any way, under their control.

They are still in talks with UK Broadcasters over launching Ginx TV in the UK.

Can anyone shed some light on this comment on DS regarding BBC Alba, see that last comment from 17 May

http://forums.digitalspy.co.uk/showthread.php?t=902178

"Not before time, apparently it is being launched this Wednesday 18th May 2011!

In Scotland only. Channel 188."

I've been trying to confirm this but can't see it anything to support the statement. Just hot air?

BBC ALBA will launch tomorrow on Virgin Channel 188 but only in Scottish areas of Virgin Media.

Scottish areas means if you have STV on Channel 103 you will get BBC Alba.

It was first reported here on May 13th. http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/35...-post1313.html

Aw cool. Niche market I know, but of interest to me and probably to football fans in Scotland as they do coverage of matches from the 1st Division and the odd SPL match as well.

Random fact of the day. My cousin is the commenatator for the matches. :D

A rumour is exactly that. Doesn't mean it will ever actually happen ;)

That wouldn't surprise me given what Virgin Media's chief financial officer Eamonn O'Hare said less than a month ago when he said: "[Sky Atlantic] is not a must have and it is not a must not have. It is not something sitting on our immediate priority board." Therefore, given that VM don't see it as a priority then it is unlikely that Sky Atlantic will appear on VM any time soon.

Was lucky enough to watch the first 3 episodes of Game of Thrones on Sky Atlantic.
What a fantastic series - would def pay extra for just that series.
