Re: Virgin TV (2024)
Now confirmed that Eden will shortly go FTA as U&Eden on Freesat, Freeview and Sky.
Whilst Virgin customers will still have to pay to access the channel, this change should mean that it will move to the lowest packs and become available to all customers.

Virgin will rebrand channel and change package when U&Eden do launch by December.
RXTV says in August it would be in November but rumours on my X page think It will happen on October 16th (Unconfirmed Freeview changes day)
Freeview has two slot free to use right now for UKTV wants to buy the new slot (SDN or COM6)

For more information on HOW Freeview works see this post I posted yesterday.

Re: Virgin TV (2024)
Overnight changes:
Prospective FAST channels, Hell's Kitchen & Egg Heads moved to placeholder slots without ever being launched.
2 new prospective FAST channels Mythbusters & Tipping Point have arrived in their place, maybe these will actually launch ...who knows?

Who on earth wants to watch 24/7 'homes under the hammer'. These are the most dire 'channels' ever content wise.

I couldn’t agree with you more, Mr K. Things have become so dire now that TV channel enthusiasts are having wet dreams at the thought of getting a new FAST channel that airs nothing but a single programme, more than likely to be old repeats of programmes already available on VM On Demand.
Still, everyone to their own.

Re: Virgin TV (2024)
What are the channel 220 to 254?
They look like back to back episodes. Are they free?

Very few people, which is the whole point. It's a cost-effective way of delivering niche content. If many people wanted to watch it, broadcasting is more efficient.
