Once you strip away the HD and +1 variants of channels you are left with the following channels exclusive to XL:
Liverpool TV
Motors TV
CBS Reality
CBS Drama
Horror Channel
FOX
Comedy Central Extra
Disney XD
Disney Channel
Disney Junior
Nick Jnr 2
Discovery Travel & Living
Discovery Turbo
National Geographic Wild
National Geographic
History
Crime & Investigation Network
Bio
MTV Rocks
MTV Dance
TV5
Of the 21 channels 4 are for kids and 1 is a foreign channel. If you are not fussed about HD, it certainly would be worth while considering dropping down to the L package and saving some money. You need to ask yourself how many of the above channels you've ever watched, and can you live without them.
Got to admit however as a fan of factual programming the loss of National Geographic and the History Channel would be difficult however still plenty of excellent factual channels in the L package:
Yesterday
Eden
Discovery Channel
Animal Plant
Discovery History
Discovery Science
History 2
