All Virgin Media customers finally gain TWO channels that have been on Sky for months at no extra cost
VIRGIN Media viewers will finally find two channels that have been on Sky for months on their boxes today.
The duo have also been on Freeview for some time too.
Two channels are available on boxes now[/caption]That’s TV 2 shows classic Brit nostalgia shows, including 1980s sitcom Yes, Minister and much-loved Some Mothers Do ‘Ave ‘Em.
There are also episodes of Little Britain, as well as 80s music videos during the daytime.
It’s a sister channel to That’s TV, which is already available on Virgin Media.
The third in the set is That’s Christmas which shows festive music videos for the rest of the year.
It will eventually revert back to its usual brand name, That’s TV 3 with more classic comedy.
That’s TV 2 launched on Sky, Freeview and Freesat in January 2024 and was followed by That’s TV 3 in the summer.
Despite having the main That’s TV channel, Virgin Media customers have been left off until now.
Users of the service will find That’s TV 2 at channel number 151.
And That’s TV Christmas can be found at number 152.
Customers don’t need to make any changes to receive the channels – they should appear on your box now.
More free TV
Virgin Media has plenty more free TV hidden on boxes.
Little-known streaming service Pluto TV boasts more than a hundred additional channels.
There’s a choice of movies, as well as hit TV shows, including reality, crime, music, sport and kids shows.
Many are broken down into themes with back-to-back episodes.
For example, little ones can watch nothing but Spongebob.
And if you fancy some adult humour there’s a South Park channel too – though this doesn’t start until 9pm.
At the moment there’s even a bunch of Christmas channels to get viewers into the spirit.
MTV shows such as Catfish, Teen Mom and Geordie Shore are available instantly too.
