Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II
With all the news about SS Hd and Sky movies Hd coming to VM , it seems to have gone quiet about ESPN America HD.

Also, is there any news (or even hmmmmmmmmmmms) about Red button content for Sky Sports? We know VM have the option for Red button, are they taking it in time for the new football season?

As I inferred earlier in the thread, that is my opinion too. If there was a problem, I'm sure VM and Sky would have heard about it by now. But legally, it's by this Saturday is when the deal is cleared, then Sky transfer the cash, the stock exchange and other forms are filled in and at that point VMtv is owned by Sky.
I know of no technical reason why the HD channels can't be launched at that point. VM has gone to the extreme measure of selling their channels to make this happen, I don't foresee there being much more of a wait for them.

....it's nothing to do with Sky.
Good Food HD is still going ahead. VM will still own it, well half of it with the Beeb.
