I've done a bit of poking around on the site and found this.

No the £7p/m Sky premier hd charge is set by Sky themselves apparantly.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 2
Someone just threw a spanner into my works. My thinking was, that if these channels were to appear then the HD charge would increase from 7 to 10 pounds. But as someone says, the charge currently covers Sport and Movies. (I only take sport myself). But if I was a 'movies only' customer, I'd be enraged if they added £3 to my bill for nothing that I receive.
So the way I see it, the HD charge will either stay at £7 and include the new stuff or they'll introduce a separate £3 HD charge for the new channels only. In which case I doubt I'd take it as 95% of my SS viewing is on 1 or 2 anyway.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 2
well i'll check my box tomorrow morning hopefully...though it appears it'd be a bit of a long shot. MB is tomorrow one of the possible "other two" launch dates or can you not say?
