Virgin says that, from now until March 16, all of its TV customers in the UK will be given free access to 22 pay TV channels including Discovery HD, Comedy Central HD, E4 HD, Film 4 HD, FOX HD, Kiss, Magic, MTV HD, and National Geographic HD.
Along with watching live, there’s also access to shows from these channels on demand.
Speaking about the news, David Bouchier, Chief TV & Entertainment Officer at Virgin Media, said: “We realise that it can be challenging to find fresh and interesting ways to keep the kids (and ourselves!) entertained, especially during the winter months. That’s why we’ve boosted our free TV offering just in time for half term, giving all of our customers access to a large choice of additional channels and programmes.
“Those looking for inspiration and ideas can also tuck into a selection of food and travel shows from Tastemade, which are now available on demand, at no extra cost.”

Virgin announced that boost late last month with it running until March 2.
It’s not just Virgin dishing out some freebies. Sky has also announced the launch of some similar free incentives including access to some exclusive movies that are usually reserved for Cinema subscribers.

And there’s even more aimed at younger viewers as, over the half-term holiday, you can take part in Aardman Morph model making workshops and a Harry Potter-themed quiz inside the My Sky app.
