Yes l cannot see ESPN Classic being taken off or replaced as this is quite a popular little channel that many like to watch.

Virgin do have a pattern of launching channels around the start of October and your information confirms it.

Could it be Sky News HD and Sky Sports News HD if channels are testing on Channel 891 and 892 and could Sky Anytime+ be in the press release

They are not Sky Channels if Virgin was testing them Virgin will put them beside Sky Movies Classic HD.

I think they will be any of the following:

PBS UK (Launching in November so maybe Virgin have put an channel set aside for channel launch)
ESPN America HD
Disney XD HD
Disney HD
Sony TV UK
Sony TV UK +1
Zing

Any news on Universal HD. If boxnation is on channel 890. Then i hope if channels 891,892 are testing i hope they are ESPN America HD and Universal HD

I really, really hope so! It's not often I rant like a mad man about a channel coming soon but this for me is a big one.

Also great news about SKY Movies Classics HD. Looks like October is going to be a great month. If SKY anytime arrives in the next 35 days then I'll hug the first Virgin employee I see when I'm out and about. I often see the "Van Morrison" and "Van Helsing" vehicles where I live just outside Edinburgh. If you drive these vans, be prepared to receive a man hug!
