I take both major sports channels - my main motivation being rugby. BT have the domestic stuff sewn up but Sky show the internationals and Sanzar. Having BT included does certainly make a difference.

The Radio Times website has Paramount Network being on channel 220 for VM. Not yet appearing on V6 Tivo.

Weird as the Paramount Network website doesn't have a channel number listed for Virgin Media

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2018)
Part of it being available is the EPG being set up, available and supplied. Who does that for VM? Is that the hold up?

It may not appear until the day it starts broadcasting. That often happens.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2018)
We did get an new channel launch today.
XXX Brits has launch on Virgin UK Channel 979.
Virgin Media UK was broadcasting it for FREE for about five mins before going paywall.
---------- Post added at 14:43 ---------- Previous post was at 13:29 ----------
What are up with Broadcasters letting the cat of the bag and revealing the information about launching on Virgin Media before signing an deal with them.
Viacom is just one of the list of channels who says they will be on Virgin Media UK from launch but did not appear.
1) TruTV
2) FreeSports
3) Paramount Network
If we have miss anymore do tell us...

Hmmm. Either the agreement between Viacom and Virgin Media has fallen apart, or it will be a delayed launch. How embarassing for both parties.
