Apparently Vice UK (Channel 183) is closing at the end of April.

It will continue providing content to other services. I knew it had a deal for All4, I didn't realise it had been providing Channel4/E4 programming for linear broadcast too. They've been doing similar things in other countries too according this article.

Someone on Digital Spy (sorry I forget who) suggested Sky might get content from them too this way, to use on Sky Documentaries. A good idea, and sounds similar to what they did with LoveNature for Sky Nature, sounds plausible strategy to use Vice as a supplier.

Going to be some gaps or reshuffling on EPG as BET UK (173) is closing on 8th April.
