UKTV signs major VoD deal with Sky
UKTV, the digital TV broadcaster, has launched its first video-on-demand service, after signing a deal that will bring classic BBC programming such as 'Fawlty Towers' to Sky Anytime+.
Doctor Who: among programmes to be available on demand to Sky customers
As part of the deal, Sky will add three high-definition UKTV channels to the two it already offers. Watch HD and Dave HD are scheduled to launch in October and Alibi HD will go live in 2012.
Now I'm only guessing here but with Eden HD and Good Food HD already on Sky thats going to be 5 channels in HD made by a company that VM own 50% in that we have not been told we will get by a certain date if ever.......
Well done VM you should be ashamed.

Virgin will have to do a lot in the next 6 months tv wise to win any new customers as l find it staggering that a Vod deal was not done first with Virgin but done with Sky and the same deal seems to apply to the UKTV HD channels, one word staggering.
