Price Drop TV to leave Freeview

Price Drop TV will disappear from Freeview early next month, Virgin
Media Television has confirmed.

In November, the broadcaster said it was "reviewing its options" after
failing to secure an extension to one of its two Freeview slots on
multiplex A. One, which currently carries Bid TV, is available for 24
hours a day in England, Scotland, and Northern Ireland but for limited
hours in Wales; the second carries Price Drop for 24 hours across the
UK.

In a statement, Virgin confirmed that the "Price Drop TV Freeview
contract" will expire on January 5 but said that Bid TV would continue
to be available on Freeview channel 23.

I expect the warehouse is not empty of all the dross. But look on the bright
size we can all look forward to the return of Ronco, K-tel and Warwick.
