I think Virgin may also get ITV1 HD (From December 2nd), ITV2 +1, ITV3 +1 and ITV4 +1 Channels as well.
Epg. Channel name
113. ITV1 +1 (England and Wales only) [Maybe Virgin can put BBC ALBA on this channel in Scotland]
114. ITV1 HD (From December when it launch on Freeview)
115. ITV2 (Move from Channel 114)
116. ITV2 +1
117. ITV3 (Move from Channel 116)
118. ITV3 +1
119. ITV4 (Move from Channel 117)
120. ITV4 +1

So where do you think VM will put Virgin1, Virgin1 +1 and any future Virgin1 HD channel? Currently VM want Virgin1 to immediately precede Sky1, 2 & 3 and I would expect that in a reshuffle they might want to group the Living channels together and closer to the Virgin and Sky channels.
I'm not sure what's happening WRT rebranding of Living2 and Living2 +1. Also, can't we do away with Virgin Central on 118 now? Don't we get all of its functionality via the On Demand menus?
I think, if they move the ITVs up so that ITV1 HD immediately follows BBC HD then everything, including Living +2 but excluding a possibly rebranded Living2 and Living2 +1, would fit before Sky 1,2 & 3.
What do you think, eh?
