And most of the use of 'Coming Soon' is actually on here, not from Virgin
I'd much rather Virgin try to give us a timescale if they are making an announcement. Rather than using the term Coming Soon, or something very similar, I'd much rather they used terminology along the lines of:

"Virgin Media today confirmed Good Food HD will launch within the next 3 months on it's award winning TV platform."

If something then happens which prevents the channel launching, it'd be good if Virgin would then release another announcement explaining the delay.

Maybe Virgin don't want to take this approach with their announcements, and I don't want to speak on behalf of anyone, however I'm sure most customers would appreciate this approach more than "Coming Soon".
