Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 3

You know I think I've misread that season Ticket ad. I reckon they're saying that if you get it with Big Kahuna you get BT Sports as well. But I think anyone could have it. Anyone know? I suppose I could just ring and find out but I do prefer speculating on this forum for a bit first!

I'm guessing Sky Sports News HD will go on 511 and Sky News HD will go on 603? Whenever they decide to launch them.
Here is what has been confirmed from my insider:

August 12th 2014

Sky Sports 5 will launch on Virgin Channel 506.
Sky Sports 5 HD will launch on Virgin Channel 516.

Early 2015
Sky Sports News HD will launch on Virgin Channel 511.
Sky News HD will launch on Virgin Channel TBC.

Hope your insider is wrong about the date for HD news coming in 2015 too long to wait

What do we have next to look forward to?

Netflix bundled in?
More HD channels?
Any possibility of Sky 3D? I know not many people might be keen on this

I understand money and pricing could be a reason behind SA not coming, but would people really leave Sky for VM based on one channel offering? I'm amazed if this was the case....(I don't want to start a SA riot lol )

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 3

Netflix would be great for me and sky 3D too, but don't virgin are too bothered with SKY 3D only a part time channel. There are not many HD channels left that people want

l think we can be rest assured that whatever happens there will always be speculation and rumours on this thread with a dash of pessimism and a hint of optimism.

That's good. If somebody is about to catch you watching Sky Sports News, simply press channel down to get to something less embarrassing.
