TV Channellists.com (Where anyone can update) is reporting that from November 31st "Discovery closing linear channels in UK & Ireland. Moving content solely to Discovery+."

Base on TV Channellist.com info the following may close on that date on Virgin Media UK:

-Discovery Channel HD
-Discovery Channel +1
-TLC HD
-TLC +1
-Food Network
-Really
-Quest HD
-Quest +1

-Discovery Turbo
-Animal Planet HD
-Animal Planet +1
-Discovery Science

-Eurosport 2 HD

Also TV Channellists.com says that Eurosport 1 HD will become an pay-per-view Channel called "Eurosport Events HD" and Broadcasting live events only.

Note Media Boy HQ have try to find an other source for this rumour with no luck.

https://www.tvchannellists.com/List_...firmed_changes (Go down to 31/11/20 to see this story - if you cant it has been removed).
If this happens there'll need to be a significant drop in the package costs or have the streaming companies added in replacement otherwise it isn't worth the money
