Any shows which are produced with that 3D technology. The Americans didn't produce the program about the Queen.

Virgin Media lower the price of Asian channels from £24 to £10 per month.

Number of channels has jumped from 299 to 312 and number of streams has gone up to 33 (the first increase in a couple of years I think). So what's new or coming soon in those additional 13 channels and 2 streams?

I have seen no information on 13 new channels coming to Virgin TV anytime soon unless - it Sky HD Channels - but who knows.

Have to say that is a good move, I know a lot of Asian families tend to go with Sky so they can get some Asian channels in one of the packs and then tend to pay for one of the Asian packs.

I have been getting Zee TV for the wife for a while now so this seems like a bargain. It is live on their site and CS were able to added to my pack.

"This is the first time such a price reduction on the Asian Collection has been taken after rumours surfaced earlier this year about the Asian TV channels joining Virgin Media's XL package."

I hope this rumour is true.

Looks like VM have added some extra capacity, the last time they did this they used it for the HD channels

How many BBC and ITV regions are there?

[boabbyshaft]

I had no Sky News or Sky One this morning? Is that just a weird coincidence or is there some sinister going on?

Its all fine here (Colchester)

[daveetwo]

""**As far as I know Kiss and Magic Radio are only broadcasting in non Ex-Telewest areas.""

Magic fm still here on 928 ex ntl.

[Horizon]

Plus, Kiss is on 963. So a mini reshuffle of the radio EPG section to come.
