Just a thought. It is the end of the financial year. New stuff usually gets signed up in April and May.

if i actually think about what i watch and what i may watch then i probably have too many channels now i dont use ... cant think of any i desperately want although improving the PQ on the existing ones wouldnt go amiss (SD mostly but even ITV1 HD has a better PQ though FTA sat than through VM and even freeviewHD beats the VM PQ when watching the footy over the weekend)

horses for courses as tv viewing habits is and always will be a matter of personal taste so wont knock VM for not adding things that would require an extortionate fee but maybe VM will take the sky route in future and have packages of channels to pick n mix what each individual wants (but i doubt it )
VM wouldn't be able to offer inclusive HD, ESPN, TV Choice or Music On Demand on XL if it went that route. Would result in a poor choice in the end.

Media Boy work out True Entertainment Channel number on Virgin Media.

I have been looking up my old Sky box to see where True Entertainment is on the Sky EPG, It beside all the Entertainment Channels so I think True Entertainment will go beside BBC HD on the Virgin EPG.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.

Thanks for the updated list media boy.

BBC Alba is no longer on your list, or at least I can't see it. I take it then that Virgin have no intention of including the channel and I'll have to wait till it's on Freeview.

Any plans to get the regional BBC channels like they have on Sky?

If you mean access to all other BBC regions, then No.

It would be nice to get other regions, I live in Stoke-on-Trent and there is news coverage from both Manchester and Birmingham regional news. There appears to be a north south devide of the city!!!

Can`t say I`m over excited about this channel as I have no interest in games what-so-ever. Others will be excited I guess (like opening your presents on Christmas day wondering what new toys you`ve got `eh boys!).

Shame. Would be nice to be able to watch Super League Show when it's on in the north, rather than 4am the next day. At least I have V+ now and can tape it

BBC ALBA was set to launch on Virgin Media last Summer.

But I have removed BBC ALBA from my list as I have not been given any new launch date for BBC ALBA to launch on Virgin Media by any of my insiders.
