You are lucky you don't get STV - there is no advantage to this. Since STV became strapped for cash, Scotland misses out on major network series - we get 'wonderful' local content instead.
As ITV and ITV HD are available on Freesat, why shouldn't they be available on Virgin - after all, we are paying the same price as the rest of the UK.
It couldn't be anything to do with the on-going financial arguments between STV & ITV could it?
