It's a new MTV channel and we're quite excited.

On Monday 26th October (as in THIS Monday), a brand spanking new channel is launching.

It's called VIVA (which is just a great name - we might call our first born VIVA), and is set to be packed with lots of music and general fun and frivolous entertainment shows.  Kicking things off is the gorgeous Alex Burke herself performing 'Bad Boys' (what else would it be?). 

And as if that wasn't thrilling enough, she'll be followed by performances by Pixie Lott, Lady Gaga and Tinchy Stryder.

You can watch a clip of one of their new shows right here:

And you can find it on Freeview 21, Sky 358 or Virgin Media 313.  We're excited, but then we try not spend time away from our TVs if we can help it.  What about you lot?  Will you be watching?
