When I was a Virgin customer, there where times when they really pulled things out of the bag. Sometimes totally out of the blue and other times totally against the views and opinions of people here and other forums. Whilst I'm still to be fully convinced BT Sports will be in the XL package, here are some of the big surprises I remember that makes me think they might be able to pull it off.

1. Setanta Sports going into the XL package
2. ESPN going into the XL package
3. The return of the SKY basic channels
4. SKY HD channels being available on the Virgin platform
5. SKY Movies and SKY Sports available on demand
6. 24 HD and SD Olympic channels
7. Film 4HD as an exclusive
8. Jointly launching Setanta Sports News to compete with SKY Sports News
