After 25 years on air, Bravo has finally been shut down by BSkyB. Challenge Jackpot was disposed of some four hours before Bravo was turned off and Bravo2 was shut 2 hours after Bravo.
These are a lot of remaining changes Sky have to do:
Channel One (formerly Virgin 1) will be shut by the end of this month according to continuity announcers.
Challenge will move to Channel One's Freeview slot after C1's death.
Sky Atlantic will launch
Living and its sister channels adopt the Sky brand leaving Challenge as the Living TV Group's only channel

On the Freeview website it says ITV1+1 will launch on 11th Jan 2011 using ITV2+1's Mux2 slot. STV and UTV are launching their own timeshifts but this is unconfirmed. That, as a result ITV2+1 will move to Mux A where it'll be a part-time channel between 7pm til' 4am timesharing with CiTV.

Retune required

Channel One was my fave channel on Freeview prior to its demise. The reason why C1 was closed was because Sky believe it's too silmiar to Sky3. It is a blow for Freeviewers.

This is how C1 closed:

Final ident with no voiceover
Sky1 Hawaii Five-0 promo
Sky Living Bedlam promo

After this Sky pulled the plug on Freeview's most fave channel.
The on screen card that was on C1 said:
Channel One is no longer broadcasting. For more info on where to find where your fave shows have moved to visit Sky.com/mytv.

RIP Channel One (2002-2011)
