A new channel was launched today using the new local tv multiplex. QVC EXTRA is channel 57 in the standard Freeview channel line up. It will only be a temporary channel on this multiplex till its removed along with the "pop " music channel to make way for the local tv channel CITY 8 when it finally launches on November 3rd.

Now that BBC3 has been confirmed as moving to online only, do you think they will move BB4 HD into the slot vacated?
