Well they certainly will have to add something by the next price rises as some on here are in a rather riotous mood.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 2

Well for the first time i will be seriously thinking of leaving virgin.been with them since the start of the telewest days but yearly above inflation increases has pi**ed me off.Not interested in"speed"increases 20 was fine for me and bt sport take it or leave it.And seriously who gives a toss about"clubland aka chilled now"coming.How do they decide that "clubland" is what the paying virgin viewers are desperate to have instead of atlantic,amc,universal hd.Like i have said before let people decide what they want to watch and make premium channels available at an extra charge and those that want them pay willingly for them instead of forcing channels on us i.e. we are giving you the channels whether you ever watch them or not.

No change on the V+ EPG, but the broadcast channel logos have now been standardised to Eurosport 1 & Eurosport 2, dropping the differentiation between the British & International versions of the channels.

All part of the Discovery takeover.

Interesting- thanks for that

I wonder if the UK now gets a simulcast of the Eurosport European feed as opposed to our own?

Pull your fingers out, VM, and get us some good channels for 2016 or bring us a bumper Christmas present. In my opinion, the remaining CSC/Sony channels may be a good addition with films and music galore.

The trouble with some series as l and many others have found out is some of these series are owned by different rights holders sadly Vince.

Seems to be the way Den . Government preaches austerity yet Virgin see fit to have about 3 price hikes a year. They ain't alone in this of course. Baffles me, the country has less disposable income, yet we are continually asked to pay more for a service that ain't improving . AMC and Atlantic are pretty much the only channels worth adding and sadly that ain't gonna happen
