With Virgin showing ESPN to be on Virgin Channel 553 I think ESPN and Virgin are still in talks over the cost to Virgin viewers.

Unfortunately some people lie like with doctored screenshots and fake photos of new products so we should believe nothing until we see proof, eurosport may not be in testing.

Here is the latest HD Channels on Virgin Media information I have at time of posting.

Virgin is rumoured to be set to start launching the new HD Channels from July 30th - mid August.

With Living HD coming in September.

I think I know the EPG Channels numbers for the new HD Channels (NOTE: The following EPG may move):

FX HD may launch on Virgin Channel 158.
Living HD may launch on Virgin Channel 159.
Nat Geo HD may launch on Virgin Channel 232.
MTVNHD may launch on Virgin Channel 314.

Plus as of Saturday July 11th, Eurosport HD and History HD was not testing in an Ex-ntl area of Virgin Media.
