Look like Virgin Media new way of testing channels out before launch day.
Sky been doing it since 1998 with four or five numbers.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2018)
Hmmm. A guessing game, might be:
Internal V - Vice
Internal T - The Vault (the least likely!)
Internal P - Paramount Network in SD or Premier Sports 2
Internal Z - Zee TV in HD

I'd say the chance of Amazon Prime appearing on VM is absolute zero.
Look at the various interviews that Mike Fries and other American cable co bosses have done over the last year or so, and they view Amazon as a major threat to their business'. In fact, far more so than Netflix.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2018)
My TiVo received Internal Q on channel 217 for a couple of hours on Tuesday morning. I can confirm that Quest HD will launch on channel 217.

Virgin Media has today launch Premier Sports in HD as we think when Premier Sports 2 launches soon it will launch in HD on Virgin Media UK on Channel 552.
