Virgin Media. Can you add some proper channels, please. You know, which decent programmes and stuff

Does that even count as a channel launch, as I'm sure they are just rebranding the Q channel.

It's the correct date according to my Freeview box

4Seven (no r ) launches on 4/7(/12) on Ch 47 (on Freeview!)

Nice.

I think with Ailbi HD launching on July 3rd on Virgin Channel 131 we may see Ailbi +1 moving to Channel 194 on Tuesday or Wednesday so that Virgin can tell viewers of the move ahead of July 3rd.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2012) Vol. 2.

Tivo related question to Alibi move. Will it pick up the move of +1 ?
( I have records set on this) Hence the reason I like +1 channels !

Yes it will. This is one of the nice things about Tivo and something that I do not think either the V+ or Sky+ do.

ETA:

To clarify... any SLs on the original, SD, channel or it's +1 will be fine. You will, of course, have to manually re-create any SLs if you want them on the HD variant.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2012) Vol. 2.

I agree with the poster on here who said it would be nice to watch Rizzoli and Isles in HD. Not sure whether it is Angie Harmon or Sasha Alexander I am looking forward to seeing in HD more.
