Suddenly have extra Virgin channels

I have the basic M TV package with Virgin, and have just noticed I am now getting some channels I don't usually get: Watch, Watch +1, Alibi, Alibi +1, Good Food, Good Food +1, Home, Home +1 and Really.

I'm not sure when these appeared, but I'm sure I'd have noticed if they'd been there more than a couple of days. Not sure if it's some kind of free trial of the extra channels? I can't find any info on it if so.

Anyone know anything?

    everyonce in a while they give you a taster of other channels, for a few days or sometimes a few weeks.

    I have them too, i think its til the end of november.
    A couple of weeks ago, i had a sky movie channel, only for about 3/4 days.


    its to entice you to upgrade your tv,
    which i did a few years ago, after getting freebie tasters
    but because of major price hikes, back to basic tv for me,

    though really thinking of just getting xl tv package for the month over xmas:p
