I've just had a chat with our TV team and Boardwalk Empire isn't currently available on Virgin Media as stated. That part of the message was sent out by mistake, sorry about that.

yes.
the sky channels in HD we are currently lacking is Sports 3 and 4 , Sky News/Sports News and Atlantic?
Is that right?
the 2 News channels are giveaways if you ask me so that leaves the 2 sports and atlantic?
£3 more, seems about right.
