However, I would be surprised if 5+24 has many viewers at all as it doesn't appear to be advertised anywhere. I'm sure that most people don't know about it.

Well, if they feed +1 channels by doing the professional version of winding live TV back one hour, I guess it's cheaper than paying for the equipment to show a seperate channel with different EPG listings.
To be honest though, I've found +24 to be very useful in dealing with recording clashes.
You never told us that you'll be appearing on the Horror Channel at 22:45 on Sat night!

But if Viacom is talking to Virgin Media over 5* +1 they also maybe talking about the missing MTV Channels as well for all we know.

He never mentioned any other Viacom channels, but that doesn't neccessarily mean anything Africa Channel will be moving EPG numbers in a bid to increase viewing figures which have not been as high as expected since starting on VM.
