I found last night that Virgin Media have got no Series Links for BBC One but got them for ITV1 for all the Euro 2012 games (I have V+ in).

TiVo series links don't have to be set up by VM like the V+ ones do.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2012) Vol. 2.
There's an interesting thread over on the AVForums with someone clearly stating that Sky Atlantic will be available "after the Olympics". Hmmm....

To be honest, I would be surprised if we didn't get it, VM must be clear by now that many of us want this channel and we are out of the one year exclusivity period that I believe Sky wanted.
It is a very expensive option for Sky to keep this channel exclusive to Sky satellite viewers because of the small audience that this yields, although I know their pockets are deep.
My guess is that we will get the channel after the Olympics channels have closed down, but (before you point it out), that is only my opinion.
One of the guys on the AV forum seems to be verifying this, but who knows whether that person has access to privileged information!
The cynic in me says that this was what our recent price increase was all about!

Well, we'll see. You can't blame Sky for making the most of the exclusivity window while it exists, can you?
Incidentally, we've just had a price increase!

And l thought the price rise was to protect us from the master and his dark servants.

You mean the one back in April? Shouldn't we have the channel by now if that was the case? 
No. That was just the usual, annual price increase; like the one Sky have each year too

And one suspects Sky customers come September could well be choking on their cornflakes once the hefty price rise kicks in.
