Oddly enough, the advice on this seems to be the good old "reboot".

Have you tried ITV+1? Or depending where you are there might be an alternative ITV region on 870/871.

There's also the ITVX app.

Nothing is ever done for nothing, if only encouraging, people to subscribe. Sprat and mackerel comes to mind. Not sure it will work . Or could be the same thinking behind shop loyalty cards. Harvesting data.

They aren't free as TV customers pay virgin media for a service . I'd imagine it's an arrangement with TNT and hardly of their own bat.

Re: Virgin TV (2026)

Both That's TV 2 and That's 20th Century say "Channel No Longer Available" from Monday on EPG, usually it would updated if it wasn't correct.

It looks like that's correct. https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/What-s-...6/td-p/5261171

Tuesday 26th May is showing Boomerang HD closes on satellite only (Satellite 603). Boomerang SD remains and moves up to 603 to replace it.
Boomerang HD remains on Sky Glass/Stream and That’s TV 2 (Satellite 181) closes permanently and Thats20Century (Satellite 183) closes permanently
