Virgin adds 10 int’l channels

Liberty Global-owned Virgin Media is adding 10 international channels to its cable TV service in the UK, carrying Pakistani dramas, African soap operas and more.

Among the channels to join the line-up is Nollywood Movies, a 24-hour channel dedicated to the Nigerian film industry.

Others include HUM Europe, which will bring a range of Pakistani dramas, soaps and entertainment programmes to subscribers.

Virgin is also launching the Worldbox app, which will add eight international channel streams to TiVo, including Ukraine’s 1+1 International, Portugal’s Sic International, Spain’s Canal 24 Horas and Tunisia’s Nessma.

The other four channels – France’s EuroChannel and BFM TV, Ukraine Today and Russian entertainment channel CTC – will be added to the app in early 2015, Virgin Media said.

Virgin Media’s existing line-up of international networks includes Zee TV, Star Plus, Sony Max and Al Jazeera Arabic.
