The channel is operated by Hearst rather than Sky so I doubt it

The channel does still show History programming unlike Eden which doesn't show any nature programming at all now.

Yes, although technically the channel is a joint venture with Sky but Sky don't manage and operate the channel themselves

Same with Sky Crime in Italy which replaced Crime+Investigation
https://www.hearstnetworks.com/brands/italy/sky-crime

For now they remain separate channels in the UK

Re: Virgin TV (2025)
That would be interesting considering Inter Barcelona was a pleasure to watch. Watching PSG was entertaining too bar the Arsenal tie which was boring due to Artetas management style still PSG made something of the tie.

Does this mean you'll be adding ITV 2 as a favourite when it takes on all the compulsive viewing from ITV Be?
Nobody wants to miss the next episode of Real Housewives and the Menopause.

After a long period where nothing much happened, this has now been added to all networks and, consequently, has had encryption added. It has also moved from internal channel 1890 to internal channels 70. Internal channels aren't visible on customer boxes, so this remains a mystery.
