This is merely a list of channels available on Virgin Media and I believe that it is not notable given that in 2012 the list of channels on rival UK platform Sky was deleted - Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of channels on Sky - as have been numerous other channel lists on various platforms.

- Delete: consensus (1, 2, 3) is clearly that these kinds of lists constitute directories, something Wikipedia is not. SITH (talk) 20:03, 30 December 2018 (UTC)

- Delete per WP:NOTDIR and for the reasons mentioned in above mentioned AfD's. Ajf773 (talk) 23:13, 30 December 2018 (UTC)
- Delete per our past consensus on the DirecTV, U-verse and Dish channel list articles stateside and Sky; not needed here. Nate • (chatter) 01:51, 31 December 2018 (UTC)
- Delete per all of the above Spiderone 12:12, 31 December 2018 (UTC)
- Delete: as noted above, we've long since established that we don't do these lists, because we're not a TV guide. Considering that many of the earlier similar lists were deleted in 2012, I don't know how this list, created in March 2013 (not long after those AfDs), managed to avoid an AfD nomination for so long… but here we are. --WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 00:12, 1 January 2019 (UTC)
