That's not entirely true is it?

The Sky Basics came back some time before VM sold Living etc to Sky.

The sale of the Living etc channels was a later deal which gave access to the HD variants of (some) Sky channels. No doubts others on here will recall exact dates.

If anybody is looking to clutch at straws, the entended HBO deal may give VM confidence to do a deal with Sky over Sky Atlantic....
