I repeat -this is a changelog - not much point in only posting channel changes that interest YOU.

Quite right. I don't pop in here often but it is sometimes a useful list. There are masses of other topics on here so people not interested should go elsewhere.

I've just noticed that BBC1 England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales and BBC2 England have appeared on channels 861-865. When did they appear, they were never there before.

It does mean that here in London we have 3 virtually identical BBC1's: London, Audio Description, England. And 3 BBC2's: 2 Englands and Audio Description.

A bit of a waste really

A good few months ago, shame it didnt include BBC2 W,S & NI

Think they've been there ages Toxteth.
MM= Please relax, you're repeating your self again.

I certainly remember watching something on BBC1 Scotland back in 2008, so they must have been there for quite some time.

AFAIK NTL had the regional variants but telewest never. They were added to ex telewest when they moved over to the next gen tv services this year.

Well looks like the rumours are true, Sky 3 has moved to channel 180 from channel 123.

What rumour is that?

SKY 1HD starts on October 1st (allegedly)

Channel 123 "Sky3" has closed and can be found on Channel 180

Not according from the tweet VM sent me.

So what was the tweet that VM sent you?

Sky 1 HD slate now on ch 122, Sky 2 now on ch 123.

Just noticed that Sky 1 HD has indeed started on 122.

Demand 5 now being rolled out...

Here is some news from virgin media boy blog:

"ESPN to add ESPN 2, ESPN Sports News (HD aswell). Red button along with ESPN Classics on demand. I've been told this should be up and running early in new year.

Russia Today, Comedy Central Extra +1, Quest +1, Al Jazzerria should be avalible by end of the year."

Al Jazerra is a good developement, lets have that!

Did that not used to be available in the analogue days?

Not on the old C&W / NTL system they didnt

I wouldn't have thought so as their English language service isn't that old. The Arabic service probably wasn't carried either.

Surprised Al Jazerra has taken so long to come to virgin media seeing as it's on freeview, wonder if the extra espn channels will be avaliable for people on the xl package

I think it was on Telewest Analogue channel 29 or 28

When's the big day for al Jazzeera then?

sorry if posted. hbo has gone from virgin.id assume because hbo deal with sky
