Virgin Media twitter team have deleted a tweet about Sky Sports HD3 and Sky Sports HD4. All of the other tweets they replied to have not been deleted

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. III.
I see Sky have placed Sky Atlantic in their Variety pack from Sep. Obviously now it's no longer free to all Sky Customers and they seem to have stopped advertising about it's exclusivity, anyone have any details if it will come to VM?
Could be a good time to launch with the TiVo updates and Sky Anytime. I would imagine that Sky may want to give it to VM now to increase their advertising revenues so will hopefully negotiate a reasonable carriage cost now.

I think Sky's Variety pack is taken by the vast majority of Sky customers, so it's only a few who will be missing Atlantic. It would be great to get Atlantic on VM now, even if it was just SD.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. III.
With a number of HD channels under never-ending negotiation to be on VM TV platform, I have to ask the following question. When are the SD counterparts contract up for renewal eg History?
Why, are VM trying to buy both variants of these channels under one negotiation!

I could not surpass you with your D.Phil in 'stating the bleeding obvious', with your speciality subject of 'Yes, I agree with that'.
