Sky anytime is shit, there's rarely anything good on it, but to be fair, you just record it first time round then it's not an issue.

Pretty much this.

Can't understand why anybody thinks sky TV is any better. Same channels and they look exactly the same.

Maybe the interface is better on Sky but other than that they're the same.

I think Hopkin must've had problems with Virgin because he really hates on it.

I've had both and there's barely a difference.

Slight edit: You don't get babestation on Virgin which is a definite negative.
