Do you watch Man Vs. Food, You Gotta Eat Here or Hairy Bikers Mississippi Adventure? Love some of the stuff on Good Food, especially the travel / cook shows.

Yes Chad l am recording the last two named at the present and yes theres some excellent stuff on the channel and not just that but there are so many useful tips you can pick up as well which we like to use in our own cooking.

Excellent!

Those type of programmes really make me ravenous. I'm now a regular at my local Hardrock Cafe as a result of Man Vs. Food.

I'm always looking to make home cooking better. Just a few simple spices can really make a good dish into a great eating experience.

Good luck against Hearts tonight, you won't need it!

BBC hd, Discovery, Sky One, BBC one and then a three way run off between five, Comedy Central Extra and ESPN.

This is an interesting idea. I'm sure that for everybody here that would like new channels there are just as many paying for pay TV options that they don't use.

Sadly not. I've not had 1 single movie automatically record for me as a suggestion in the 7 or so months I've had TiVo.

Actually I must go back over to the Virgin Community Forum to see if anyone did actually comeback with a definitive answer to the question I posted. Last time I checked, all I was getting was responses from other TiVo customers saying they had no movies recorded either.

Update:

Looks like the thread died without an official reply from the guys at Virgin

BBC1 HD
BBC4
C4 HD
Eden HD
FX HD

But it very much depends on what's showing - I rarely think of channels these days, just programmes/series. The only channels we put on as general viewing are Eden HD and BBC1 HD.
