Sky signed an exclusive deal to receive all of HBO's show for UK showing, except shows that already have homes like True Blood on FX but that could easily change. Programmes will be available to view on a VOD service for 30 days after they are shown. 

I'm slightly jealous and annoyed I can't get this channel because I'm with Virgin Media. So are you looking forward to the launch of this new channel? What are you planning on watching? Let us know.
