A BBC FOUR HD work has been done.

So all TV360 viewers can now start to reset their series links.

Also Comcast looking at launching NBC Sky World News after plans were put on hold 2 years ago. They may be announcing this on Thursday as their annual earnings are released.
Ofcom says that Comcast wants CNBC (UK) Limited to run NBC News Now here in a UK and not Sky UK Limited.

NBC News Now: http://static.ofcom.org.uk/static/ra...nbcnewsnow.htm

So unless Virgin Media and CNBC are in talks right now it look like NBC News Now will not be on Virgin Media from launch.

VM is 107 in all regions for BBC3.

I can't find an official source to confirm them.
I have been thinking more about BBC FOUR HD new channel number in Scotland and Wales and now think any of a following may happen:

Plan A) Ofcom says S4C need to be in Top 8 on the EPG in Wales - if true a following may happen. From last weekend.

108. BBC FOUR HD - Not in Wales
108. Channel 4 - Wales only
113. BBC Scotland HD - Scotland only
120. BBC FOUR HD - Wales only
120. BBC ALBA - Scotland only
120. ITVBe +1 - Not in Scotland or Wales
162. ITVBe +1 - Only in Scotland and Wales

Or Plan B)

157. BBC FOUR HD (Scotland and Wales - But Ofcom want BBC FOUR HD in top 24 of Virgin Media EPG by 2024.)
