As for Atlantic, When VM got Sky 1 back and were gearing up for Sky on demand they were quite vocal about that too. If they had a deal for Atlantic to start next week they would be using this to get customers to renew and switch. The longer BT and Atlantic are off VM the more likely they are to have customers switch to Sky or take up the BT broadband offer.

In my own view:
If the rumoured on Virgin Media being banned from telling Viewers that BT Sports are coming to until August 1st are true we will not we an channel placeholder for BT Sports but we may see an extra placeholder telling viewers how to order BT Sports appearing with BT Sports on August 1st.
I also think Virgin Media may add an channel placeholder Sky Atlantic launching as soon as Tonight after midnight if
Asian Channel rumours are true.
