As always, the answer to your question can be found in Media Boy's post number one here which is updated weekly and now colour coded for easier reading. (Although the colour key isn't included, it's in a post from a few days ago.)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
Hi Media Boy, I read the item about the ZONE channels on DS coming to the UK, and are being offered to various broadcastors.

Thanks but the first post is actually quite difficult for me to read which is why I asked.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
Virgin only goes after new channels when they deal is up with that broadcaster.
And I have been told that Zone/CBS has not any plans yet to redo their deal with Virgin.
So from November 16th we only get two CBS branded channels on Virgin.
NON Cable news:
If you have got an Freesat from Sky Box you can now view TMF on Channel 358.

Yes it's quite difficult for everyone to read because there's so much in it!
Hopefully Media Boy's new colour coding will help you.

Actually it's the way the post is laid out and the colour he uses for various things that makes it a problem for me to read (to do with the way I see things before you ask).
Thanks for the help though

The idea of a 'sticky' post one which is updated weekly and contains the latest information was a good one.
Okay, you lose the history of changes but it's better than having the up-to-date news lost among the other discussions here.
It's up to Media Boy but any additional effort on his part is a lot to ask from us.
 MB, can we please have a 3D version of post one? I still have the Virgin1 Chuck glasses!

I thought we were only getting CBS Reality.
Zone Horror is not part of the rebranding.
