Just an update on cnn post this deal was done in December /January 2012/2013 the original plan was to put cnn usa behind a red button but it will now get its own channel

cnn hd will be collected over intelsat 22
Have you just put that up because MediaBoy just said on Cable Forum that a deal was only done in January and then said that Bromley Multiplex was shut when Telewest was closed..?

There are only some more timeshift channels and some more music on demand slates due to be added in the near future.

FOX+ on 199
CBS Reality +1 - 201
horror channel +1 - 202
Seems mad to put FOX+ on 199 when 159 is available next to FOX HD

I believe that the Bromley Multiplex is still going but with the EPG Channel Numbers from the Langley Multiplex site as Bromley had 001 for BBC1, 002 for BBC2, 003 for ITV, 004 For Channel 4 and 005 for Channel 5

I will double check this with my insiders tomorrow

RE: My insiders have no information about Sky Atlantic at all, so maybe coming later than we thought unless something changes in the meantime

Hopefully it will come soon now that Liberty Global have bought out Virgin

Fox News is available from Sky in the UK or on other Satellites around the world

Im not really into my politics. It was only cause I often watched it when had sky. As US is rather large there tended to be something major happening somewhere, whether it was a live mad man with a gun or fire etc and they tended to have coverage pretty quick.

Q - has anyone actually surfed the Liberty global site. Had a look at all the other countries that have cable owned by Liberty global, there are quite a few channels that are distributed to all netwoks/countries which I assume is through Liberty global, so there is a chance we may get likes of Fox News, ABC news and sports and other. I can list possibilities if want

I don't think it means much, Liberty own UPC in Ireland which have a lot of the missing HD channels Virgin don't...

Not on your mobile. I've made the suggestion to DS to add the feature. Whether they do or not is up to them. Sorry if my post annoyed you!

No, they aren't on their own i want it for the comedy effect.

I remember when Sean Hannity was interviewing The Ultimate Warrior over the Chris Benoit tragedy and it all got a bit heated and Hannity ended up saying he could beat him in a wrestling bout, it was quality viewing.

That's what i want to see

Hannity is a right wing nutjob but it's pure comedy gold

The Asian channel Colors has just become free to air permanently on Sky. Wonder whether the channel will be made available as part of the basic package on cable, instead of in the Asian mela. Like Rishtey?
