    Other Regions like Wales and Northern Ireland may also have their own BBC One HD

    The NI version has been around for some time, the Wales version doesn't start until the 29th January.

    Looks like VM are starting to really devalue the XL pack, time to look for a change I think

    Yes, down to the Size L pack as SizeM/M+ are not worth that much, most of the + channels and of course the Sky Livingit channel is missing in this package

    Nope, True Movies 1 is also available in the Size L pack now, you will only get The Horror Channel and TCM HD as the extra channels when upgrading to Size XL TV from Size M/M+/ or from the Size L pack

    That's probably the main reason why I won't be downgrading...

    It might be worth waiting to see what other new channels will be provided by VM before the coming price rise. Might still be some surprises....

    I notice the straight move with no slides on the old channels like they used to telling you the channels have moved.

    The Disney Cinemagic channel will be no more from the 28 March 2013 as reported elsewhere and everyone who pays for it as a standalone channel is encouraged to upgrade to the full Sky Movies suite of channels
    for £5 a month as a limited time offer, it will also last for a limited time
    It will not appear on your bill anymore

    On the Sky website I am sure they have changed the wording as it now says
    There are dozens of Disney and other family movies available on the Sky Movies channels, to help keep everyone entertained
    http://www.sky.com/mysky/latestnews/article/my-sky-updates/2013-01/disney-cinemagic-to-close-in-march/

    I am sure earlier today it said something like
    The best way to continue watching Disney Movies is to upgrade to the Sky Movies pack

    Yes, I liked Toon Disney as well, at least I can still watch the main Disney Channel as it was only moved to the Sky Kids pack now in the Sky Entertainment Extra pack
