I going to get a pasting on here for mentioning this but if you want news of up and coming series on channels then a certain rival cable forum website has a very good television section. Which gives you advance news of new stuff coming soon to any transmitted channel.
Incidently while trying to do a search I came up with this link.

Seems sky news is going to have a real fight. A global independant news setup which will have profesional journalist give it as they see it.
I bet this will be on virgin media platform very soon to replace sky news.
