Premier Sports 2
When is this launching? I thought it was part of the Freesports deal.

Re: Premier Sports 2
PS2 launched on Sky last week - but not in HD.

I agree. I think Virgin's platform would be freed up nicely to enable new UHD channels to launch if it scrapped all HD variants where there were no programming differences between the two, and all +1 channels.
However, I am sure there would be the inevitable outcry, and after the UKTV upset, I dare say Virgin won't want that.

Re: Premier Sports 2
There is no HD variant of Freesport - it is SD only.

Premier Sports 2 will be HD it launches tomorrow. Freesports HD apparently is on the way like tvchannelslist says there is no confirmed date yet.

After a quick look around, I'm now not sure that PS 2 will be in HD. I'm pretty certain that the tvchannelslist link said 'Premier Sports 2 HD' the other day. But now the HD part isn't there. That would be typical. We'll just have to wait and see.

Thought I had seen a post that ps2 was only in SD on sky - so unlikely to be HD on virgin for at least a while.

Ah. Maybe tvchannelslist initially got it wrong and there was never any Premier Sports 2 HD in the first place. Maybe it doesn't exist just like Freesports HD currently doesn't seem to exist.
We'll find out tomorrow for sure.
