Oh yes, absolutely. The loss of the ITV channels would certainly have dwarfed the complaints about the loss of the UKTV channels, to the point where I think that it might have even threatened the continuing viability of the platform.
You are the one contending that Virgin are under pressure over a handful of minority interest channels leaving. Imagine the power that gives the UKs largest commercial broadcaster if they go off air?
