Wouldn't imagine any of them you've mentioned there launching anytime soon there niche channels with limited appeal.

I have a feeling sky atlantic is been done has part of the contractual change vm has with sky and will come wiv anytime and hd sub change.

i have no proof it just a instinct

If any channel was set to launch on Virgin Media as part as the new Sky Sports/Movies HD Change Virgin will maybe carry more Sky Sports HD Channels not Sky Atlantic HD.

Take note I have not seen anything on more HD channels from Sky launching on Virgin Media.

But i do also think they are holding back till they get a few more channels on board and are going to do a big press release like they did with the first big lot of hd channels on board.but some thing is coming.
Its just the new replies i av being getting from when we know we will let you know. To watch this space

The Sky Anytime thing was part of the deal that saw Virgin Media Television being sold to BSkyB last year.

They are in talks with ITV like I imagine they are with every other major channel they are missing.

Doesn't mean anything will come of them.
