At the very least maybe explain why certain channels havent come rather than silence.

"they want D amount and we would only pay C"
They're going to have to do something to remain competitive according to this analysist:

We seen no news.
Thanks for the info.

It also looks like Fashion TV leaving Telewest wasn't connected to the shenanigans on satellite. I always wondered how this channel covered it's costs and assumed that they were funded by the rich designers as they carried no advertising and were non subscription for the vast majority of the time.
