I mean they're banging on about the SJ Chronicles all the time and we wont see that until something like March 08.

I can't think of anything new that UK Sci-Fi shows though apart from Eureka, & that's after Sky One has shown it.
I agree that if Virgin had it, you'd think they'd make a fuss.
So far, it's just a rumour that Virgin has it, & the person who said they had it hasn't posted since & never gave a source.
But Sky say they don't have it, so surely someone must.

I don't think that's likely though. There isn't another broadcaster out there as willing to chuck stupid great wads of cash at sub-million ratings figures as Sky.

I also would have assumed that Sky would have the rights to it, especially as they have shown the series itself from the pilot & season 1 onwards.
But... Sky told me that although they have the rights to season 4, they do *not* have the rights to Razor.
