Virgin 1 becomes Channel One

The bin. Out of all the Virgin channels acquired I'd have thought keeping Bravo would have made more sense as out of both the Virgin and basic Sky channels, it's the only one male skewed.

You can say that, but have you seen what Bravo was showing? I hadn't watched the channel for years, the vast majority of it being garbage, to be fair I think Sky are well rid of it, it's just a shame to lose an iconic brand that goes back to the old days of Satellite TV.

Didn't realise they've also pulled Challenge Jackpot today aswell, again no huge loss.

On Virgin Media they've got captions up saying the channel has ceased broadcasting on both Sky and VM with the decision blamed on 'the channel provider'......

Its no longer on the EPG,

I still wonder where Dog the bunter hunter and sons of anarchy will be placed,

I really do hope SKY3 gets a major revamp, it could become a great channel, it if take on sky, virgin one etc content

Dog the Bounty Hunter it seems has moved to channel 151 E: entertain

While it is a shame to see a brand disappear after 25 years but is it not the result far too many channels for a country with a population of our size?

Sky have the following channels. (Hidden so as not to take up the whole page!)


Add to that channels from UKTV, ITV, Channel 5, Discovery, Viacom, BBC and others and something has to give.

I don't understand how some all these channels manage to make a profit.

75% of those channel are moves or sport which come at a premium which can cost £20 - £40 a month, while the other channels are just repeats of the main channels,

To Dave, I'm sure Sky Travel doesn't exists anymore.

Did anybody cap the last few minutes of Bravo/Bravo 2?

It is surprising how quickly bravo.co.uk closed down. I'd have thought Sky would at least redirect it to sky.com

End of Bravo
