Also, will this result in one, big, happy network? As I understand it, there were super-headends for the different cable networks - one for ex-NTL; one for ex-Telewest; another one for ex-CW.

After the switch to the Next-Gen/IPTV network, will there just be one, super-duper headend for the entire network?
Can't answer your first question Chris, but there will be one super headend at Langley, so everyone will get the same services/channels (except regional ITV1/BBC etc) There will also be a disaster recovery (Back-up) headend at Knowsley.

HTH
