I'm sure they won't close Channel 4 itself, but there was no mention of cable TV in the speculation by people in the industry. If Channel 4 continues to broadcast as is, Virgjn are obligated to continue carrying it at neutral cost.

If Channel 4 decides to cut costs by going streaming only, I don't believe that Virgin has an obligation to carry it and if they do they would be able to charge them for it.
how are channel 4, who get better ratings than channel 5, in a worse position than channel 5 financially?
