Virgin Media TV Blog: August 1st for six HD channels on Virgin?

THIS POST WAS ADDED TO MEDIA BOY BLOG ON JULY 21ST 2021:

According to a forum post on Digital Spy, Virgin will launch six HD channels on August 1st:

Just received a reply from Mr Berkett's office regarding HD Channels and ESPN. Below is the reply (Please note no mention of coming soon)

Howard
We are in negotiation with ESPN
We will launch half a dozen channels on August 1

Nothing official from Virgin and not the first time we've seen a possible date. I will see if anyone at VM can substantiate this. Stay tuned...

UPDATE: Just got this back from VM support:

At the moment there have been no announcements, as soon as anything new does come out this will be communicated to the customers.
thanks

Kind Regards
