Ok, you tell me what it brings then, Den, imo it brings absolutely zero to this thread, this thread is titled "coming soon" a post saying we know whats coming but we have a dnp, makes a mockery of this thread title, we've seen these dnp posts before, and most have either come to nothing, or have been about some totally useless channel coming, as Horizon has already said, there will probably be loads of people who know about this already, so posting it will make not a jot of a difference, what will they do to MB if he reveals what it is, send him to the galllows?

Look like two new Channel 4 AD (Audio Description) stations are set to launch soon on Virgin Media UK on Virgin UK Channel 854.

Digital Bit Rate says they appeared on May 23rd on CO 57.

So some Virgin Media viewers will need to readd Channel 4 AD to their Favourites Channels if it launch in your area.

UPDATE:

An new Channel 4 AD station has been added to Channel 854 in Scotland.

Thank you for that; which leaves only the new Horizon UI that I can think of!

Well l disagree on what it brings to the thread MM as there are many members on here and many like to check the thread for the latest going ons and on what might potentially happen in the future.

Horizon can presume as much as he wants as he is entitled to have his respected opinion just like anybody else on here.

MB has done a good job on here for many years and certainly does not deserve some of the grief he gets sometimes as whatever he posts he is doing to the best of his ability.

Agree 100% - I prefer see something is potentially coming (even if, when it turns up, it is of no interest to me) as opposed to some of the wishful thinking that doesn't turn up. Thanks MB.

Given the length of time involved, maybe it's something significant. Or maybe Gold goes HD or something as maddening as that!

GOLD is already HD and has been since not long after the UKTV channels returned.

No, genuine mistake. I should have said Talking Pictures HD, but didn't want to upset Mr K, who I believe prefers all things grainy and black and white!

Some time ago I asked why people posted here when they have no connection with virgin media. I got slated ,banned etc. Just to advise that my friend who I posed the question for sighted the response from certain persons .She has now received her Doctorate. Once again thank to the the person that gave a ban , really stood out in the paper.

Media Boy EXCLUSIVE: Media Boy HQ seen pictures of Amazon Prime being tested out on Virgin Media UK.

It past midnight and our Do Not Order has now been lifted and we can now reveal that we have seen pictures of Amazon Prime being tested out on Virgin Media Boxes.

But due to copyrights we can't post them online.

Perhaps some will now understand why you could not lift the DNP MB.

We forgot to add Amazon Prime was testing like an APP like the BBC iPlayer.

Except the DNP order MB was talking about expires at the end of the year. This must be a different one, and as it is already known that Amazon Prime is coming to VM this summer, I don't understand what the secrecy is all about.

So it's testing. What I want to know is when is it launching. That's news..

No, I agree with Max. Saying that you know something but you can't reveal what it is for over six months is not worth posting because it doesn't mean anything by itself. If there was some additional indication that could be given (eg it's a new TV channel, or it's an upgrade in PQ or it's a streaming service), now that would be worth posting.

But 'I know a secret and I ain't gonna tell' is not helpful. Better to say nowt.

By the way, that's not a criticism of MB, it is just making a helpful observation.

Amazon app coming to TiVo is a wonderful addition. Hope it comes out soon. When we just need sky Atlantic and we can then shut this place down as it’s done
