Oops no, VM is still the only platform not to carry the channel.....

A VPN is much more than just allowing you to bypass region blocking, it also helps with blocking the likes of Food Standards Agency and Department of Transport seeing which website you've visited with the Snoopers Charter

Cheers Den. When I can get the same happy pills as you out of my GP then maybe I can pretend everything is brilliant as well Seriously, give Talking Pictures a look sometime - channel 81 on Freeview - can't see it as a cost issue for VM as Freeview, Freesat and Sky all have it. I can get it via the Freeview route but it would be nicer to record on Tivo.

We got a Freeview capability on our TV but cannot get a signal.

Also worth mentioning a vpn is a strong defence against getting hacked too.

Removals:

TSID 6: SID 615 UMP Movies
TSID 9: SID 901 Movie Mix
TSID 19: SID 1907 My Ex Girlfriends

Additions:

TSID 2: SID 215 Sony Movie Channel (This launched on a different transport stream to the Movie Mix channel it replaced).
TSID 17: SID 1713 ITV PPV HD

The last one is quite interesting.

We did think UMP Movies was removed.
