What new kids’ content is coming to Virgin Media?
Here’s the good news. We’re bringing you 1,000s of new episodes available on demand, including Blippi, Angry Birds and loads more. Go to On Demand > Kids > Virgin TV Kids on your telly box and Virgin TV Go.
You can also enjoy great content on the new kids’ app Hopster, including hundreds of episodes of Pocoyo and Pingu.
We’ve also recently launched YouTube Kids – a great way for parents and kids to watch, learn and play together.
The best part? All of this comes at no extra cost for Fun, Full House and Kids Pick customers.
Is the Disney+ app on Virgin Media?
The Disney+ app isn’t currently on our TV box. That said, we’re hoping to make this happen in the future, so keep an eye out.

Interesting that Hopster is going to be a separate app on VM, it's currently a subsection of the Kids area on STV Player, so maybe STV's deal is expiring or maybe will be limited to other platforms going forward. The STV Hopster selection does seem much smaller than I remember it being. Maybe it's expiring prior to the new deal starting. |
Is ketchup! on VM at all? As that's another kids app, what made me chuckle is "at no extra cost" i should hope not as youtube kids and hopster are free anyway.
Also regarding Disney channels, Disney's plan is to close them globally in the long term with all Disney content being on Disney+ This will eventually include SKY Cinema Disney too.
I hope Monday i can give you guys good news regarding D+ on vm.
