You certainly have to buy a ticket to be in with a chance.

So what has been posted on line today?
Presumably it's not come from you and it is available on line, so you should be able to post a link.

Thanks for the link MB. The 'more things' could tie up with a post I made previously; a box that has Bolt functionality combined with an updated/replaced Roamio.
If that truly is the case, rather than wishful speculation, then, 'Much improved' really would be the understatement of the year.

Surely loyal customers will be looked after first with a decent offer.

At least we will have the choice. The Sky Q box won't come cheap either!

Surely you jest? Loyal customers are never rewarded.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016)
Well they would be very unwise not to put their loyal customers first this time as patience is wearing thinner and thinner as time goes on..

Films are from the 1970s and earlier. Not any interest to me.

Ooh, you're very grouchy today, Den!
But we all know that it will be expensive until supply outstrips demand, and then it will get progressively cheaper. The earlier adopters always pay more!
