What I am holding on to is that Technix on DS is always right, plus he also gave out channel numbers (176-178)

I think Sky Atlantic will always be held over from VM unless something happens...

If they boot Sky Living higher up they can get all BBC (-Alba) & ITV channels in a row.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 1.

Media Boy, l know that VM have True Movies 1, and True Entertainment, but why doesn't VM have True Movies 2.

Isle of Wight cable has that that channel, so does Sky so l cannot see why we dont have it.

l am sure it will come in due time Arthur but other possible new channels are more attractive at the moment.

Indeed and excellent value compared to Skys £10.25 HD charge.

I agree. Can't argue with 45 free HD channels.
