I am guessing they worked a deal out with Sky with regards to EPG fees. I know they were once in a Sky package which resulted in lower EPG fees but went FTV meaning they would have to pay the full cost. I wonder if Sky have agreed to let them pay the lower amount again hence the sudden unexpected return.

I think that's probably what happened too.
They couldn't reduce the price of the EPG fees, due to the FRND rules, but they can do things to get around things like help with uplinking or letting channels onto their own transponders.
