Ok well said

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. IV

Does anyone know if Demand Five is still testing or was that just a rumour?

I noticed that BT Vision stopped carrying the service in the past few days.

It was certainly showing in catch up as member posted screenshots in the previous coming soon thread who I think was on the Basildon headend, I know 'Cowboy Builders' was one of the programmes although he/she could not actually view it, most people reported that it was not showing on their stb's though, me included so it must have been a localised test.

Or asking when a particular channel is coming when all they have to do is look back to Media Boy's latest weekly summary to find the up-to-date situation.
