What Channel Is Primetime On?
 
On the Primetime website it states that it is available on Virgin Media, but i cant not find the channel? The reason i ask is that the channel is now going to be showing Strikeforce Challengers for free in 2011..

PPV Primetime events are usually on Channel 0 I think, I don't know about free Primetime events as I have never seen any before. maybe it will gain a regular EPG slot for them but I would personally doubt it.

Not all Primetime events in the past have been broadcast on VM though.

Bad news I'm afraid guys. Primetime don't have a dedicated channel on Virgin like they have on SKY. I've missed so many free events because of this it's unreal.

I'm a big boxing fan. Last weekend Primetime broadcast Bute Vs. Mendy for the IBF title free of charge, but as they don't have a dedicated channel on Virgin I didn't get to see the fight. Primetime are also showing a new Amir Khan documentary, and loads of old fights this week in the lead up to Khan Vs. Judah this weekend. Again I'm missing this too.

The only thing I can suggest is that you keep an eye on the Primetime website. They did stream Bute Vs. Mendy last week via their site, and the picture and sound quality was supposed to be very good. You might get lucky as I suspect they will also show Strikeforce Challengers via online stream free of charge. It just means you'll have to watch it via your PC.

Unless you have HDMI output from your laptop or computer then you play on your TV.:D I have done this on several occasions with pretty good results.
