Re: Virgin TV (2025)
Obviously not, as it's closing completely.
I don't have Sky, so can only see when it closes on Virgin (which is relevant for this thread).

Re: Virgin TV (2025)
Guess they will use TNT Sports 5-10 red button channels more
I suspect they will make it available on all Max tiers, they did in Europe last year,likely doing that with Winter Olympics

Wouldn't surprise me if WBD sold 1 or both slots to Premier Sports

It is indeed. I used to love watching some of the more obscure stuff they used to show like the Rachau hill climb events that used to be on every Christmas in the late 90's.

Yes - for 12days when Sky sold their share in Eurosport to TF1 (When Sky did merge with BSB to BSkyB).
Only two channels was save on the BSkyB launch day on Astra 1B on April 15th 1991 from BSB.
The Sport Channel > Sky Sports > Sky Sports 1 > Sky Sports Main Event.
The Movie Channel > Sky Movies Max > Sky Cinema (Channel 402).
Then in 1993 Eurosport did merge with ScreenSport and relaunch as Eurosport.
---------- Post added at 14:26 ---------- Previous post was at 14:17 ----------
What happen to other BSB Channels on Marcopolo after merger?
Galaxy did close on December 2nd 1990 and Marcopolo transponder handed over to Sky One
Now did close on December 1st 1990 and Marcopolo transponder was shared with two channel Sky News & Sky Arts (Sky Arts did broadcast at weekends due to BSB having some arts rights)
The Power Station (BSB's Music channel) did close on April 8th 1991 with Marcopolo transponder handed over to Sky Movies+.
Here an good video on what did happen in Sky HQ in 1990/1991 when their was working on what to do with BSB: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MAB6sfYOi20
