I know whos complaining, but whos left out?

More channels are a coming too!
We still don't have a completely unified channel line-up yet which I find bizarre if it's all coming from a single super head-end. It's almost there though ...

NO. Channel Name
917. Radio: RTE Radio
920. Radio: WRN Europe

NOTE: Channels are only broadcasting in Ex-Telewest areas right now.
What possible technical or contractual reason could there be left for not having these two radio channels available in ex-NTL/C&W areas? It's not that I am desperate to have them, it's just that it implies there is still some distinction between the platforms that impacts roll-out of future services.

I have all of these news channels:-

TV Guide > More > News ...

I'm not sure but TV5 may have news programming in French also.

Personally I find euronews very good as when there is one major news item, either at home (e.g. MP's expenses) or abroad (e.g. the current Egypt crisis), the mainstream UK news channels tend to devote their entire 15 minute slot to that one item before repeating it after the headlines, whereas euronews covers a much wider range of European and international news stories in it's bulletins.

Note: I'm on the XL TV package, your experience may differ!
