Virgin Media TV customers are about to get hundreds of new premium TV shows for free as part of a massive October-long giveaway. Customers are being given access to dozens of kids' TV channels from today until October 31st—and they won't have to pay a penny.
The channels include Sky Kids, Cartoon Network, Boomerang, Nickelodeon, Nick Jr and more, which host a number of the most popular shows for kids and teens.

The package usually costs an extra £5 per month, but Virgin Media says its giveaway is part of a 'thank you' for subscribers.
It will cover the October half term which means it should be an easy way to keep your little ones busy on their days off with shows including Teen Titans, PAW Patrol and more.
The content you'll get isn't just for kids though. Cartoon Network broadcasts Adult Swim after the watershed, which includes some great picks including Rick and Morty, Robot Chicken, The Eric Andre Show and others.
Everything will be available on demand so if you miss anything, you won't have to tune in live just to see it.
Of course, Sky also offers access to endless content aimed at younger viewers but to add Sky Kids to packages currently costs £6 extra per month.
Speaking about the new freebie, David Bouchier, Virgin Media O2's Chief TV & Entertainment Officer, said: "With half-term just around the corner, and lots of households feeling the pinch, we're giving families a helping hand to stay entertained this October with a host of premium kids and teen TV channels available at no extra cost."
The giveaway is only for Virgin customers but competitors Sky are also offering a few freebies right now. Today Sky launched a new scheme which means Sky Cinema customers can get their hands on two free tickets to Vue cinemas every month. Find out more
