Trace Latina (366) and Starz (369).
In addition to those 2 and the Studio 66 channel (923), Geo Kahani (741) and Challenge + 1 (260) are also closing. So 5 channels closing in total.

It was Sky channel 912 that got the 'ofcom strike'.
The closure of 923 would not be anything to do with that.

would the same closures applied to freeview channels as well as SKY?

Obviously it's a rationalisation plan. One channel to advertise the products (ie. the girls). The S66 studio's have been out of bounds during the last three months. You would assume they are still paying either rent or mortgage on the property. Add this and all the other overheads together and it no doubt adds up to a tidy sum. Throw in reduced number of callers, due to the lockdown and the alarm bells start ringing. Expect Babestation to follow suit in due course. They did last time S66 reduced channels.

No, it should be midnight tonight (or shortly thereafter).

I seriously doubt that any alarm bells have been ringing. Studio 66 have been running down the TV side of the business for some time. It's their policy of trying to get viewers online and away from the TV that is the cause of them needing less TV channels, not any issues caused by the virus pandemic.
