Nope, Virgin won't get it back any time soon. It's Sky flexing thier muscles to the competition, after Virgin bought out Telewest as well as NTL and became substantial rivals. My advice would be to juse the juicy unlimited download rates you have with virgin and download lost and 24, it's what I do, it's so easy. Go to www.bittorrent.com and download thier free software then go to any of the following websites:
isohunt.com
torrentspy.com
mininova.com
and search for lost or 24. The episodes are perfect quality and are online about one hour after they air in the states. They would probably take you about an hour an episode to download, dependent on your proximity to your local exchange with Virgin. I just watched the new lost even though it's not on sky one till Sunday, wicked!

Hi Donna
To be honest I only just realised yesterday that some of the channels had disappeared from my TV service. I keep meaning to check what other stuff has changed, but haven't done so yet....... I am concerned about the change though. I'm no longer convinced I'm getting the same value for money service that I originally signed up for with Telewest. I like you need the best cheap package for phone, broadband and TV, so I'll be interested to read any answers that might help.

stick with virgin fo a bit longer... they have reported sky to the office of fair trading. Lets see what the outcome of that is before you make any decisions.

Virgin should stop whining and pay Sky for their content!
