Cable co punt on-demand platform for Winterval telly

Virgin Media, flush with yuletide spirit, have launched a print ad campaign offering customers the chance to ‘avoid the turkeys’ this Christmas – a sample selection of their on-demand movies and programmes are printed next to a blank TV schedule for Christmas Day, prompting viewers to fill it in for themselves.

Among the films and shows on offer on Virgin’s televisual julbord is Digital TV hack and slash favourite 300, Blades of Glory, the award-winning The Queen starring Helen Mirren, the 2002 version of Ocean’s Eleven and John Waters’ This Filthy World, which we have to admit could make for pretty uncomfortable family Christmas viewing.

Virgin say that the only place you’ll see a turkey ‘is on your table’ this Christmas. Movies cost from £2 each on-demand, and you can pause/rewind/skip forwards as you would with a DVD. TV Choice On Demand is available on every TV package from Virgin Media.
