Re: Coming soon to Virgin TV 2014
Local TV ventures in this country have been dire, but it works in the US. There is no reason why they can't work here if they get the programming right, provided that the geographical areas are big enough to generate sufficient income.

However, these are two big 'ifs', so I hope the people running these channels have the vision to make them different, appealing and successful.

The local channel we had going in the Thames Valley for a few years some time ago was truly painful and boring to watch.

Trouble is, Chris, that this could mean they cut him out of information in the future. Mind you, if he can't publish it when they give it to him, it makes you wonder about the value of this arrangement.
