It gets worse. It looks like Sky are moving all their quality drama to the new channel. http://www.google.com/hostednews/ukp...1294225202750A and http://www.thestage.co.uk/news/newss...ne-up-revealed
Talk about giving a slighlty false impression. How about THIS part...

Virgin and BT, which show Sky channels including premium sports through a wholesale arrangement, have held talks over the new channel but have been unable to agree a deal. The broadcasters are hopeful of reaching an agreement, but remain some way apart over terms for the channel that will also show the new seasons of Mad Men and Entourage.

We didn't even know they were trying and it sounds like they are not stopping to try and get it... Glass half full people!!!!
