Oops, sorry! I must have not noticed the word "Freeview" hidden away in there. So yep its the same for Freeview, but a reduction for me as I already had Challenge in my Virgin Media package - and I am not remotely interested in it!
Channel One was a good channel that I frequently watched - Star Treks (I watched the last Voyager episode last night), Motorway Patrol etc.
Even worse for me - I had absolutely NO IDEA it was going until I switched on the tv today :-(
I hadn't seen any advertising for it, don't know how I missed it - they must have shown something on the channel about it, there was enough blurb on there when it was about to change its name from Virgin1.

"3 hours agoAndy: It's not a reduction as Channel One has been replaced with Challenge."
Briantist - yes it IS a reduction: the Challenge channel already exists, Channel One has been closed and Challenge is taking its position - therefore there is one channel less which is obviously a reduction.
