I can't get that link to work, but i've found this:

I wonder if this will allow VM to offer their TV service via 3rd party BB in uncabled areas?

Andrew Neil has explained that he would probably not have launched GB News if the BBC had treated him with more respect:

This is the reply after saying it was believed that these new codes were for the new TV Entertainment service for BB only customers:

'Possibly, but I think those trials were already in place before the codes were added. I'm not sure why codes would be needed on the TV platform to provide an IPTV service, wouldn't any codes for IPTV be held within the online system? Virgin already offers many of its channels over IPTV for devices, I would have thought that they would have used that system for the trial. As an afterthought, there is also a problem for BBC channels, where the BBC insists on their own platforms being used for online content.'

I wonder if SP knows what's going on and is able to say without getting into any bother
