Virgin Broadcast the Zone channels, so I doubt it will stop broadcasting because it's now CBS (well tomorrow).

We didn't get a mid night launch of the new channels. I doubt the EPG and channel names will be updated until office hours at sky HQ either.

I don't think HD was ever anticipated for these channels. Certainly not yet.
