Taffin - BBC1
Back to The Future III - ITV
Orphan - Channel 4
Vinyan - Channel 4
Wyoming Renegades - Channel 5
The Ride to Hangman's Tree - Channel 5
Last of the Dogmen - Channel 5
Fun with Dick and Jane - Channel 5
Miss Congeniality - Channel 5
Proof of Life - Channel 5
Nine Months - E4
High School Musical 3: Senior Year - 5*
The China Syndrome - 5USA
Baby Mama - ITV2
Tin Cup - ITV3
Inside I'm Dancing - ITV3
Scary Movie - Film4
Springfield Rifle - Film4
Sister Act - Film4
Girls! Girls! Girls! - Film4
The Duellists - Film4
The Italian Job - Film4
Alfie - Film4
Candy - Film4

Over the space of 7 days you'd quickly build up a library of over 100 films that you could watch for free even on M, M+ and L packages. It would be a better service than Picturebox and a very basic version of SKY's Anytime+ Movie service. Whilst the films on offer wouldn't be anywhere near as good as SKY's offering, at least you wouldn't have to subscribe to any movie channel to enjoy Virgins offering.

To pay for this service non skipable adverts could be included at the start of the movie, during the movie and at the end. The movies from BBC should be included for free as part of iplayer.

Good idea.
