Virgin to buy the ITV2 +1 slot for Virgin 1?

Posted 24th August 2007 by Paul

There are reports online that Virgin are considering buying one of ITV’s Freeview slots off them (the space currently used for ITV2 +1) to launch their new channel, Virgin 1. Originally it was thought the Ftn slot would be used for the new channel, but (as it’s only a 12 hour slot – and ITV2 +1 uses a 24 hour slot) they might not be – meaning Ftn might stay on Freeview after all. Virgin 1 is expected to launch in September/October.
