General : Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4

[1andrew1]

Viacom will seek space on VM and Sky next year for its male-orientated reality channel Spike. On Freeview, it will displace Viva. However, Viva will continue to be available on VM and Sky.
Looks like the men's equivalent of ITV Be to me.

London Evening Standard Spike hosts its own awards show, Guys Choice, in the US, which this year saw Rihanna, pictured, named Most Desirable Woman.
Spike will carry a mix of repeats of Channel 5 factual series such as Police Inspectors and Cowboy Builders and US shows such as nightclub series Bar Rescue.

But we know that Virgin and Turner Broadcasting System Europe Ltd is rumoured to be in talks over Tru TV so maybe for all we know we may get CNN HD (Virgin Exclusive?) as part of deal.

But I have seen no confirmed information on CNN HD launching any time soon.
