Virgin Media has announced it will be making some major changes to its TV planners this week, affecting where certain channels can be found.
The provider is carrying out one of its biggest shake-ups ever, and customers have been reminded that the changes will come into affect today (July 4).
At 12am this morning, 86 channels moved to different numbers, meaning that if you've memorised your favourites off by heart, you'll have to spend some time learning the new combinations.
The Mirror reports that the changes include services such as ITV +1, Discovery HD, MTV and Comedy Central +1 which all get new numbers on the planner. This shake-up affects all of Virgin's set-top boxes.
According to the provider, the changes are being made in order to move popular general entertainment channels into more prominent numbers in the TV guide and +1 channels into a dedicated channel range between 300-399.
This update will have happened automatically overnight, so sadly there's no way to opt out if you wanted the channels to stay the same.
For those who have recorded TV programmes in the future, you shouldn't miss anything, as Virgin will store the content correctly from its new home.
"On 4 July, we will change the numbers of 86 channels in our TV guide across TiVo, V6, TV360 and Stream," Virgin Media confirmed.
Here are all the channels that have moved, and where you'll be able to find them from now on.
