Incidentally, there's still no word on when Virgin customers can expect Sky 1 HD, Sky Arts HD, Sky News HD, Sky Sports HD and Sky Movies HD to arrive on the platform, but there are murmurings that "XL" subscribers will also receive those channels at no extra cost.
BBC1 HD is expected to arrive in the autumn, while rumours persist that Five, ESPN America, History, Food Network, Bio and Bravo will all launch HD channels on Virgin Media before the year's out.
