Hi Glenn
I hope you're right. Where did you hear this? I know VM have been testing a new HD channel using Sky1HD as the placeholder, so you could well be right. btw, they're also testing additional SD channels, probably for the full launch of the Sky red button service over the next few weeks.

I have heard a simular rumour,I contacted the ceo`s office regarding new hd channels last week and listed a few i was hoping for and that was one i listed.This is the reply
Regarding our HD line up, we added nearly 30 new HD channels in the last 12 months, and we're pretty pleased about that. In addition, we offer most of those channels at no additional monthly fee, unlike Sky which charges £10 per month for HD. Please rest assured that we will not stop there, we have plans to add more great HD channels in the months to come. We're currently in discussions for a number of new HD channels, including those mentioned in your email.

That's the standard response from the CEO's office now regarding HD channels. It's no secret that they've had talks with Sky about Atlantic. I haven't found anyone though who can verify what Glenn's heard.
