You’ve got two new themed channels at no extra cost: British Screen Classics and wedotv Movies

Virgin TV brilliantly brings together the shows you love, so that’s why you can now get stuck into two new themed streaming channels. The best part? They’re on the house.

From Tuesday 24 June, customers with our Stream box, Virgin TV 360 or our Virgin TV V6 box (powered by TiVo^®) can kick back and dive into two new channels dedicated to movies at no extra cost.

With themed channels, you can immerse yourself in your favourite genres and activities or get lost in round-the-clock episodes of hit TV shows. Perfect if you know what you like and don’t fancy searching far and wide to find it.

With British Screen Classics (CH 450) and wedotv Movies (CH 451), now every night can be movie night.

Please note, if you watch TV on our TiVo^® box, you will not be able to access our themed channels. But it’s super easy to upgrade to our latest Virgin TV box.

Here’s all you need to know about your two new channels.

British Screen Classics (CH 450)

British Screen Classic brings together a multitude of film and TV gems, taking you on a journey through Britain’s great cinematic heritage with a whopping catalogue of more than 1,000 classic British movies. Every theme and genre are covered for all discerning film fanatics: comedy, horror, war, adventure, drama and romance, it’s all here.

This month, the classic movies include Michael Caine in swashbuckler Kidnapped (Thursday 17 July), Richard Attenborough in crime drama Brighton Rock (Saturday 19 July), Laurence Olivier in Shakespeare’s Henry V (Sunday 20 July), Olivier and Vivien Leigh in period drama That Hamilton Woman (Friday 25 July) and Alastair Sim in the riotous comedy The Happiest Days Of Your Life (Saturday 26 July). Enjoy.

wedotv Movies (CH 451)

wedotv Movies sees the best of contemporary cinema, with different genres and themes every day. Think Romance Mondays and Sci-fi Wednesdays. You’ll also find special seasonal events, like when it’s Halloween or Christmas. With a catalogue of more than 500 movies, you’re sure to find something you’ll love every day of the week.

In the week beginning Monday 21 July, enjoy the Young Guns season featuring stars before they became famous – including Nicole Kidman in BMX Bandits, Keanu Reeves in The Brotherhood Of Justice, Tom Hanks in Mazes And Monsters, John Travolta in The Boy In The Plastic Bubble and more. Also, on Thursday 24 July until Saturday 26 July in the daytime, it’s Christmas In July with a selection of movies to put you in a festive mood. Yule love it!
