My son & daughter both have Sky & both agree that this is not a channel they use much or indeed at all. I suspect that the advertising dept. of Sky are rubbing there hands in glee at the Virgin subscribers frenzy over this channel.
SKY Atlantic, like any other channel, has a lot of padding. There is no channel currently broadcasting that offers wall-to-wall quality 24/7. My wife is a big fan of American drama and loves Game of Thrones, Blue Bloods and The Newsroom. I prefer the likes of The British, Alan Partridge and look forward to Vegas and The Following. The channel isn’t for everyone however if you like American programming or innovative drama no other channel does it better in the UK than SKY Atlantic. The list of shows on the channel is pretty impressive:

The question you need to ask is would the addition of SKY Atlantic add value or improve Virgins current channel and on demand line-up? The answer has got to be yes.
