My Virgin Sources seen your post yesterday and has confirmed the following to Media Boy HQ:

-All V0... channels testing provided no now and next info, no subtitles, no audio nothing so we have no clue what they are.

-ARABIC HAFLA looks like some sort of app as info provided with channel it says only Arabic Hafla in that's now and what's next - something like WorldBox.

-NAT GEO WILD HD has full details of subtitles and what's now and what's next.

Media Boy HQ thinks ARABIC HAFLA will launch soon on Virgin Channel 836. Also NAT GEO WILD HD will soon launch on Virgin Channel 229.

IIRC, it later went FTA again before being removed in the summer of 2010.

I suspect that Telewest may have removed this channel in 2004 or 2010 after losing the satellite feed.

The Hotbird satellite at 13E still carried it FTA, but VM equipment might not have been able to pick it up.

Anyone interested in seeing what this channel has to offer can take a peek here:

Fashion TV stop broadcasting on Telewest in December 2006.
