But no new channels is set to launch on Virgin Media UK we have all of them.
Maybe Eurosport News will relaunch in the UK on Virgin Media?

I think this is going to be very significant when it comes to Virgin Media moving into 4K content.
The potential Discovery content speaks for itself.
I can see Eurosport investing in 4K coverage of the big tickets events they have such as the Olympics, Tennis Grand Slams, Tour De France etc. perhaps go back to having secondary coverage of the World Cup and Euros etc..
Would be nice to think Virgin Media could be front of the queue for this.
