Possibly useful to the disabled but for the moment this is a channel, proposing to provide only 1 hour of programming for 2 nights a week as an opt-out of another shopping channel. The Mall itself doesn't even have a 24/7 broadcasting schedule.
It's a tad optimistic for a channel, only providing 2 hours of output per week, to be suggesting that they hope to expand to Freeview and Virgin Media. There's a lot of other shopping channels on Sky, the first hurdle they have to clear is actually being noticed. It remains to be seen whether or not they will stand out from the crowd.

Just a thought. :-)

Considering the relatively small size of Smallworld compared to VM as a whole, it wouldn't really make sense to schedule new channel launches around whatever is happening there.
