Hi Chris
Thanks very much for your e-mail. We would love to launch on the virgin media network, but unfortunately they wont let us on there. However, if you wrote a letter of complaint to Virgin, it would help the case tremendously.
Thanks once again
Antix."
to say that i was very surprised that a channel wanting to join was refused would be an understatement

Was it because Living "VM big Channel" is mostly paranormal stuff.

I saw a post a few weeks ago on one of the BBC’s blog sites from the Head of BBC HD. In it he said that they were having a HD control truck manufactured and that it would be put to use for next season. So fingers crossed!

No I don’t think you are – unless we are both suffering from creative memory syndrome! I spent ages prior to making my post trying to find it and ended up going round and round in circle on the BBC web site.
Perhaps someone else here will have better luck.
