From what I can gather, it'll be a matter of days before it's shown on ITV. The rest of the programming is repeats similar to ITV3, so I don't blame VM for not paying for it initially.
I say let Sky pick up the bill for the set up costs, whilst VM can save some money, which (in theory) should help to keep our TV bills down.
