Wasn't Discovery formerly owned by United Artists and then Telewest??

I remember when they started on Astra analogue in 1993 and the Discovery Channel was only on from 4pm to midnight along with Bravo.

Later on they used the capacity to show TLC from 9am until 4pm.

This TLC was educational and eventually closed down and was nothing like the TLC that is on VM today!
If i was SKY i'd take Discoverys EPG slots from them too why should they keep them for if they ain't agreed anything.
Nat geo channels imo are leaps and bounds ahead of Discovery for quality content these days.
