Bit of a loss. I like to get a a different view on news from time to time. Less chance of local bias.

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2020)
For those disappointed with the removal of 'hayu' from Virgin TV, you'll find some of the programmes on E! and E! HD (channels 139 and 140) such as Keeping Up With the Kardashians. There is also some content from this channel available in Catch Up and Box Sets, but it is restricted to certain customers only.

Well there's still the English version of France 24, unless that's closing too. The French one is probably only closing on VM as there aren't as many French speakers.
Also...

The France 24 app on the English news version currently allows French, English, Spanish or Arabic versions to be selected, it will be interesting to see if that continues.

After getting Virgin TV back in December, I found myself watching hayu regularly, for the true-crime documentaries. I wonder if the app will continue on NowTV or is it just leaving Virgin?

Hayu had True Crime documentaries?! They kept that quiet in their marketing.

Well I imagine murder and true crime didn’t fit the overall image of the service! That being said Sky Crime now carries a chunk of that Hayu True Crime content so it now has a more natural home within the Sky/NBC family - interested to see whether Hayu continues to carry that kind of content as a result.

Good question. I had thought it was leaving VM as it was now owned by Comcast and they may have wanted better terms for it as they own Sky as well. We shall see but you can still subscribe to it on Now TV although neither Sky nor Now TV is mentioned on the Hayu UK website.

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2020)
In a complete coincidence to 'hayu' being removed from Virgin TV, there's a new article on Virgin TV Edit about all the great reality TV content available:

It'll be interesting seeing how this works with BT especially - a mixture of premium add-on, and inclusive.
