Not how I wanted it to happen, but their 50% off is too good for me not to take up.

Will do. Last time I was with Sky I had a horrid time so I am hoping for a better service this time round.

Thanks for that Dave. So even some of the 'insiders' appeared to get it wrong.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015)
Good stuff
Why no fanfare from vm about a new HD channel? If I wasn't on here I wouldn't have known about it as I'm rarely scrolling in the 200s

Our sources told us Virgin was having some "technical issues" with channel in mid May.
The channel was supposed to launch two times before today.

Media Boy HQ thinks History HD is one of the V0-- channels that Virgin are still testing.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015)
History HD will be nice, specially for those who watch Vikings. It will be even better in HD along with all the historical programs like Pawn Stars!! hehe
