Well if they made one about all the contacts I've had with CS over the years it would be quite boring with friendly chat and agreed ways forward.

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2021)

Apparently BritBox has finally went live on Amazon Channels, so you can indirectly get it on a VM box now.

As noted elsewhere, Matchroom Boxing have agreed a deal with DAZN to replace Sky Sports as their UK broadcaster from 1 July. I would expect a DAZN UK channel and/or app to launch on VM as a result of this.

A bit of a treat Bank holiday Monday BT will show the none league final for free to bt, virgin and sky customers.
Ok it's not exactly Man city v Man united but at least it's proper grass roots football.

The fitness programming on Virgin Media Ultra HD that commences when Get Moving closes are all branded Virgin Active, which is the name of a health club chain, so I'm guessing it's a new partnership.

Well caught up, this was being discussed a couple of days ago - add ITV to your list.

And by the way, BT are not selling up they are looking for a partner and looking to retain at least 50% of BT Sport

Hoping to see more info about this next week in work, Verizon are definately in the running but they won't meet the demand i think.
Another one to watch is VMs owners Liberty global got a feeling they might make a bit.
I'll keep you all updated best i can.
