DS Forum think that Viacom may axe Channel 5 + 24 for 5USA +1 to launch.
If Channel 5 + 24 is set to close Viacom may ask 5* +1 or Spike to launch on Virgin Media.

What I'm curious about is whether Viacom does a major rebrand of Channel 5 and turn it into CBS.
We already have Fox, Universal (NBC), so the only major American network left is ABC without a presence here. (cue ITV...)
Viacom own a lot of channels in the UK but all with different brands. I'm just not sure they'll keep the Ch5 branded channels alongside CBS ones. Something has got to give.
