Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
New Channels update:
Media Boy HQ has today seen an update on the channels that Virgin Media are testing - but as yesterday we cant reveal what we have seen yet.
But "Watch this space".
We also have new idea what is testing but will keep it close to our heart for now.
Also the information we posted on Sunday is out of date.
We cant say anymore as we think it will be too easy to work out what may launch.

If it's higher than 4, we might be in for a nice surprise.

It will be showing a lot of american factual format shows such as Bar Rescue (currently showing on 5*) as well as repeats of Cowboy Builders and Police Interceptors.

These shallow 'reality' shows falsely described as documentaries really are pandering to the lowest common denominator. Agreed, they have their place, but they seem to be taking over!

It will start to be advertised from today (at least on Channel 5 anyway). IIRC it will start at Easter sometime.
Their spin says that they will be showing exclusive shows from America and the UK. There will be box office dramas, big budget movies (channel 5 has a lot of these) and adrenaline fuelled sports (Bellator MMA as it's owned by Viacom and has previously been on Viva?? E3 as mentioned by theone2k10??)
