Media Boy update.

ITV1 +1 is set to launch on Virgin Media on the 11th of January but I have pick up tests for STV +1 and UTV +1 using my old Sky Box.

I have no information at time of posting that Virgin Media has got the rights to both STV and UTV's +1 hour channels.

Here is an up-to-date list of things set to happen over the Christmas Holidays:

January 1st - Bravo, Bravo +1 Bravo 2 and Challenge Jackpot will be closedown by BSkyB.
January 5th - FX HD will start broadcasting from 8am every day on Channel 158.

Would love this to happen I can say that defo Virgin have been in talks for it as I received a reply off Cindy Rose months ago which stated Virgin were in Talks with ESPN to carry this channel. TiVo is on the way but Virgin know they need more content especially Hd to tempt Sky customers over.

It would be nice if this were true, we seem to have been waiting an eternity for ESPN America in HD.

Video game broadcaster Ginx TV is to launch in the UK in the first quarter of 2011. This comes following the appointment of former MTV digital exec Will McGillivray as channel manager. The network is currently run by Michiel Bakker, one of the founders of MTV Europe and chairman of Nickelodeon.

Ah, so that's why they needed to get Vince Cable out of the way!

They couldn't buy him off, I guess, so he had to be "relieved of responsibility" some other way.

Well time is short so, for now, I'm going to go with one of the saddest lines in an ABBA (or any other) song ...

"Nothing left to say, no more ace to play".

Wishing you all a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

mattboothers · 23-12-2010, 20:04
