I predict they will move the SD series links to an Audio Description version on 857 (after S4C AD). I seem to remember rumours of a STV AD launching on VM a fair few months ago.

I think that just reflects that not so much is happening with new channels these days. But don't forget that we have recently had added those additional channels to replace the UKTV channels during the negotiations and we've also got the Smithsonian Channel coming this month. Oh, and let's not forget Sky Sports Racing.

Virgin Media viewers outside of Sturgeon country will be able to watch BBC Scotland on channel 162 as well as on the BBC i-Player.

Worldbox on channel 834 has now closed.

Still no sign of the new Desi App Pack on channel 800.

---------- Post added at 12:49 ---------- Previous post was at 12:13 ----------

Virgin TV Kids (channel 700) is offering us a 'special treat' from 4pm over the next 3 days, back-to-back episodes of the Cartoon Network animated TV series 'Summer Camp Island'.
