Also, after that false start almost a month ago. SD versions of QVC and QVC Style on channels 740 & 742 respectively have been replaced with the HD versions. I'm sure that will thrill many followers of this thread. :D

Good news. It was a flawed strategy in the first place.

The Catch-up programming of the likes of Stanley Tucci Searching for Italy (which has been on BBC2 recently) could be on their combined on-demand streaming service, it doesn't have to be just about the live linear channel, which presumably might just seek to rejoin those platforms it left.

especially funny because NBC News Now has launched on virgin media and if you wanted your fix of american news youve just gone over there. CNN literally moved out to make more money and their competitors have just strolled in. I also found the CBS app fairly decent which i purely went to look for after CNN decided to leave haha
