Dave HD on Stream
According to the Virgin Media website and Channel Guide for Stream, the only way to watch Dave HD is to subscribe to the Essential Entertainment pack:

Is that really the case?
It seems crazy that Virgin Media would expect people to pay for this Freeview channel.
No, it's an error. All VM marketing has always stated that Dave HD is in the Essential Entertainment package, but it's wrong. It's available in HD to everyone.
The free package carries HD channels as standard wherever Virgin has access to them. The only exceptions are Sky Arts and Sky News, which are only available in SD in the free pack.
