Is it still going to be a part time service for VM customers ie only the football will be shown in HD?
Could be wrong, but I think I heard that Sky Sports F1 was due to close, if this is the case, I imagine that this is what will be used for Sky Sports Mix.

No plans for Sky Sports F1 channel to close, especially in the future as it will have exclusive rights.
No announcements to say that S4C will be anything more than a Euro 2016 channel but you never know, they might forget to turn the off switch.

But, to be honest, that post did seem a little harsh.
Anyway.....Outcast preview episode 1 which is on demand was really good. Well worth a watch. Looking forward to the series starting soon.
|
Outcast is on my list to watch, i dunno if true but heard sky n vm will be getting it available on demand before it actually airs.

Was it the whole series or just an episode at a time?
Either way that would be pretty good. Definitely worth a watch mate, I think you'll enjoy it.

More off topic posts removed, any more will see more warnings handed out.
I suggest a few posters re-read the forum T+C's, esp those relating to staff decisions and off topic posts.

Did I read a year ago that the BBC were pulling out of F1? Even more reason that it will stay on Sky.

Yes; until 2019 when all races become exclusive to Sky. https://www.theguardian.com/sport/20...ll-formula-one

Looks like the information was wrong.
Those without SS F1 will be able to watch one race FTA (will probably be on Pick):

If VM get the non premium channel Sky Sports Mix, there looks to be some races on there too.

I've not heard anything either way, but knowing Sky you're probably right.
