Sky didn't get it automatically, a licence has been agreed according to Drama's Twitter site, it will launch on Sky on the 8th, channel numbers to be finalised. It also states they have nothing to announce regarding Virgin at the moment.
Maybe VM are waiting until the existing carriage agreement with UKTV is due for renewal.
