The original UK Drama morphed into Alibi, concentrating on a narrower crime drama genre.

I would have thought one of the vacant slots in the entertainment range. Although Blighty doesn't really fit very well in the factual / documentary section as it has a large amount of lifestyle content. UKTV's new Drama channel would be out of place on channel 206.

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned before but Bio. + 1 only operates between 5am and 7am on Sky. It's more of a placeholder for the channel 197 slot on Sky than an actual channel, as such it is unlikely to come to Virgin Media. Maybe you could make a note of this on your owned by link.
