Vintage TV on Virgin
I have seen this Freesat/Sky channel at my mum's (on Sky) and thought it was pretty good - covering music from 40's to 80's.
They sent me an email today saying they were getting 500,00 viewers a week now and want to get carriage on Virgin. To support this they have a Facebook page "vintage 2 virgin" - if you want it look it up and press the "like" button. Guess it works like a petition - more "likes" they get the more they can chat with Virgin....

Re: Vintage TV on Virgin
Would like to see this on Virgin but wonder if they are going about it in the right way. How many people who do not have a Facebook account are going to sign up for one just so they can vote?

Not me, for one.
Sounds like a good service though.

Re: Vintage TV on Virgin
Likewise, don't do the facebook thing.

Re: Vintage TV on Virgin
Vintage tv is doing better than expected and is negotiating with virgin media about carrying their channel.

Though there are probably quite a few of us who want the channel we don't want to sign up for Facebook.
