As you know Sky want to get to 50 HD channels by end of the year, in doing this the likes of Sky2 and Sky Sports News etc will be converted to HD.

VM have scrapped the UKTV/VM TV Channel sale and are looking to do the same.

Other rumours are Virgin are looking into a Virgin News Channel which will get both SD/HD treatment.
I can see VM doing HD versions of their other channels... LIVING HD is very successful.

I very much doubt a VM News channel TBH... VM have already said in the past that it would be too expensive to produce and there are already enough news channels.
