BBC News: India NDTV 24-hour broadcast ban is suspended by government
Quote:
The Indian government has suspended a one-day ban on NDTV's Hindi channel due on Wednesday, which had been widely condemned by other news outlets.
Broadcasting Minister Venkaiah Naidu took the decision, the channel said.
The 24-hour suspension was imposed as a penalty for NDTV's coverage of an attack on the Pathankot air force base.

NDTV India broadcasts on Virgin UK Channel 836.

We have just been told tonight that AMAZON is "ready to launch".
Amazon is set to appear on Virgin UK Channel 205 on Thursday.

Any idea if a discount will be offered for VM customers?
I agree with all the sentiments about Christmas channels in October/November- it's totally ridiculous.

Cheers. I asked as someone asked me if Amazon was on the TiVo, as they want to change from Netflix when they get their services installed.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016) Vol 2
My personal preference is Netflix I wasnt impressed with Amazon but its good that it will be on the Virgin platform for those that want it.
Im still hoping we will get History Hd not that there is much history on it but would be good have Ice road truckers in HD.
