I see no reason why anyone with Virgin TV can't post in this thread whether they watch the channels or not, after all it is a discussion forum.

So if you don't watch any of the channels why bother discussing it?

Well it is/was part of the package that people pay for, and the thread did have ITV in it too.

What would be nice is to see what the content is that is getting added, also I’d say that virgin took a big gamble but they stood there position and won, next year sky contract up for renewal

Re: Virgin Media & UKTV+ITV Channels
"Cable customers lost five free-to-air channels - Dave, Drama, Really and Yesterday - as well as the paid-for services Gold, Alibi, Eden, Good Food and W.
A Virgin Media spokesman said the paid-for channels, which took longer to restore for "technical reasons", would reappear over the next few days.
The new agreement increases the number of catch-up hours available, with customers on the top-tier Full House plan gaining access to "significantly more" boxsets, the company said.
It also adds access to HD versions of Dave and Gold for customers on the cheaper Virgin Mix plans"
