Re: Abbey Clancy takes over Virgin Media On Demand during the World Cup
 Has anyone told said widows, that they won't be allowed the remote control during the World Cup, to be able to watch Abbey Clancy's favourite programs?

Just what I was thinking.
Indeed there will be a tussle for this PC between my son and myself because neither of us likes watching football and his Xbox is connected to the only TV.
Anyway I'm wondering what a 24 year old wag is going to find entertaining TV wise.If it's reality shows then she can get lost.

Re: Abbey Clancy takes over Virgin Media On Demand during the World Cup
No problem in our household. No football fans present. It's just finding some channel not showing WC coverage or related items.

I think it's just to remind "World Cup Widows" that they can escape with TV Choice On Demand
Multii-room is a must for this though!

Re: Abbey Clancy takes over Virgin Media On Demand during the World Cup
Am I only the only person who read the headline and thought some investment company had bought out the VOD service?
