Unable to view TNT sports on Apple TV

I’ve downloaded the Virgin TV Go app to my Apple TV and can view all channels except TNT. I get a message saying streaming is not available on this device.  TNT works fine on my iPhone and iPad just not Apple TV. Any ideas as how to resolve this.

    Virgin TV Go is an app for mobile devices, so I don't see why it's available on the Apple TV which is going to be connected to a TV and give people free multi-room. So it doesn't work for TNT Sports and if you want to stream TNT Sports you need to subscribe to discovery+. It's up to you to decide if this is really worthwhile when the 360 provides all the linear channels and Catch-up.

    Hi Philster,

     Not all channels are available on Apple TV, this is down to limitations and licencing between the broadcasters and various parties with what they allow to be broadcast.

    Thanks both for the replies. Not worth upgrading to Discovery+ as I was only going to use it to watch cycling while I’m on Zwift in my shed. guess it’s back to the iPad.
