Do you know why Virgin has got 4 SID for both BBC Three and BBC Four?

When they only need an new copy for BBC Four and two for BBC Three.

I mean they only got two SID'S for ITVBe +1, BBC Scotland HD and S4C HD?

I was just reporting what both RXTV and Media Mole was reporting yesterday so I am sorry for any in convenience this may cause.

108 will probably have an info slate for a few days, so the new config's of BBC FOUR could stay on 107 for a few days. After that, BBC FOUR now has a separated config for each nation, so could, potentially stay on 107 in, say, Scotland & Wales but move to 108 in England and N. Ireland.

Who knows what will happen to the SD and +1 channels in the top 24 over the next few months? Perhaps Virgin already has a slot, or range of slots, earmarked for removal / change.
BBC Three HD can be in top 24 if Virgin really wants to do it:

107. BBC THREE HD (All areas)
113. BBC ALBA (Scotland only)
120. BBC FOUR HD (Scotland and Wales only)
162. ITVBe +1 (Scotland and Wales only)
