Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1

I wonder if the recent calls for energy drinks to be restricted to adults only because of the high sugar content will have any affect on the plans to create Red Bull TV?

I'm sure, at least in part, that this channel is intended to be a promotional vehicle for Red Bull.

Would they be allowed to encourage young people to drink their product??

Will this negative publicity prompt them to get the channel on air earlier than planned??

I've also found this. I'm not sure why a cable site is concerned with Sky channels, but this article states that carriage on Sky has been finalised. As this will be a FTA channel and they appear to have an EPG slot in readiness, I doubt Sky have had much, if any, involvement!
