Today&#8217;s announcement thus covers premises in the <strong>NG postcode<\/strong> and that includes Nottingham city centre, its suburbs and parts of some surrounding towns such as Mansfield, Newark-upon-Trent and Grantham.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><strong>Tom Mockridge, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/vm\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Virgin Media<\/a>&#8217;s CEO, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<em>The early interest from homeowners, businesses and Nottingham City Council has been instrumental in Virgin Media being able to fast track our network expansion plans in the area.
