do any of you know how i can find "kids extra" on virgin?

We have had the virgin box for 2 days and i could find it easily. It has disappeared which means that i can't watch pingu back to back any more!

my son really liked the fact that he could watch thomas and bob whenever he wanted to.

I phoned virgin and they had no idea what i was talking about and told me to look on their site which is worse that useless!

Please save my sanity!

Um... what options come up when you're on the 'On Demand' menu?

IwishIwasmoreorganised · 02/02/2009 21:47

Do you mean on-demand?

There's a button on our remote that says on demand and I usually then press number 2 then number 3 and then go to the letter that the programme starts with and there it is - magic!

I don't have this. Do you have the full package (XL) or the large (L), we have the L and don't get this. I don't think you can get this with Virgin to be honest, they don't have the same channels as Sky.

xl package

If you can find a list of thomas, bob and pingu episodes (i think the episodes were all listed in double figures) i will love you all forever

I did speak to virgin.....the chap didn't know the answer

I only have the L. They have restricted this as I am late paying the bill . I have less channels then freeview now.

Watch your bill, they increased mine after 12 months without telling me.

Yes I spotted this yesterday. We always used kids extra for The Wiggles and Angelina Ballerina but as you say, it seems to have gone from the list now. We used to access it by pressing on demand, then 7- Kids and Kids extra was at the top but now its movies instead. I can only suggest trying the different channels on the list like Disney, Jetix, Nick Jnr or after pressing 7- Kids, press the bottom one 9- More and on the next menu go to 4- Kids A - Z. Hope that all makes sense. Hope you find everything!!
