Call me eagle eyed or sad but...

If you watch the demo on Virgin's Tivo site, there are two little things that caught my eye:
At around the two minute point when it shows South Park there's a reference to channel 733 Bravo HD in the bottom right of the screen - not a channel we'll ever see now that Sky has ditched the brand, so maybe much of the demo is from a US cable's listings?
Similarly, around the three minute mark there's a search which throws up "Boardwalk Empire". I think again this is from US listings, but the optimist in me would love it to be for Sky Atlantic HD on my new TiVo box early in 2011...

Boardwalk Empire is coming to Sky Atlantic in February. Incidentally, a friend of mine, who knows a Sky rep, told me they're launch on 24 January.

Also in one of the promotional shots I've seen a show, or maybe it was a film was listed as being PG-13 which is an american rating.

The other thing that I noticed, in the Bafta award screeenshot the thumbnail for Spooks has the US name of the show MI:5.
