Good! About time Sky started to lose some shopping channels and bring in some good stuff (or nothing else, maybe some more porn or another shopping channels, hopefully)!

Did a survey for sky and it was hinted that the cost of BT sports for sky customers could be £15. Don`t know if that includes the channels in hd but either way I wont be paying it!:td:

+£15, they could very easily sell it by wrapping whats included but if HD isnt offered on Sky or VM then well... good luck with that one.

Re: General Sky TV Discussion

BT Sports 1 HD and BT Sports 2 HD are supposedly testing on SKY at the moment.

BT Sports 1 HD is supposedly on 11.585 - H - 27500 - 2/3 (Channel name 50660)
BT Sports 2 HD is supposedly on 11.527 - V - 27500 - 2/3 (Channel name 50360)

I tuned both into my SKY box. When you try to view you get the following message:

"Call the broadcaster to upgrade your subscription to receive this HD channel".

The EPG for both channels state:

"BT Sport is coming soon".
