Virgin Media to disappear from UK high street
Virgin Media is to disappear from the high street after deciding its network of more than 50 retail stores will stay shut once the coronavirus pandemic lockdown ends. In recent years, its rival Sky has also moved to dramatically reduce the number of physical stores it has across the UK. In March, Virgin Media moved to employ 500 new call centre staff in the UK over concerns that the outsourcing of customer calls to offshore workers in countries including India and the Philippines could be interrupted by the spread of the virus. - www.theguardian.com

It also follows a move last year that saw the BBC create a dedicated slot devoted to the best of BBC Three programming on its flagship BBC One channel, offering comedy drama dating show Eating With My Ex and Stacey Dooley-fronted make-up competition Glow-Up.

BBC Four presenters rally to save channel amid closure rumours
BBC Four presenters are rallying to save the arts and culture channel which is rumoured to be facing closure as the corporation looks to cut costs and invest in younger audiences.

Times Radio made their first announcements this morning outlining some of the key shows which will launch their new radio station. The relaunched Virgin Radio with the nation's most popular DJ, Chris Evans, who swapped from Radio 2 to Virgin Radio with, to all intents and purposes, the same show, could probably be held as the high water mark of what can be done quickly on digital radio - in a year he's added 1million listeners to take that station to 1.5m.
