Bravo TV channels on Sky and Virgin to close

Sky has confirmed the closure date for the Bravo channels as the 1st January 2011.

Sky acquired the Bravo / Living group of channels in June as part of the £160m deal to purchase the Living TV Group.

From January 1 next year, the Bravo family of channels - including Bravo, Bravo+1 and Bravo 2 - will cease broadcasting on all digital TV platforms, including Sky and Virgin Media.

Sky has decided to scrap the Bravo channel because it serves a similar demographic to Sky1.

Bravo, Bravo+1 and Bravo 2 will no longer be available after 31st December 2011.

They are being closed down and their programmes probably reallocated to Sky On and Sky Two.

Their Sky EPG data for the 1st January 2011 shows "No programme data available"

Channel One, the ex Virgin Channel, still has programme data available, so its closure may not be on the 1st January 2011 but later in the year.
