...
Please note that as a UK taxpayer you are paying for this so I would expect it will joining the VM lineup from day 1

You've been paying for BBC Alba as a Licence Fee payer for months -still no sign of it on VM. That's not a complaint, I can't think of anything on it I want to watch.

I e-mailed them last september.

Hi ****,

Casualty is moving production location in 2011, and therefore will move to HD delivery at the same time. That will mean that Casualty will probably start transmitting in HD on our channel in early 2012. Because of the shift in locations, it doesn't make sense to make changes earlier than this.

All the best,
Danielle

Eurosport HD seems to be on my EPG now but as I am on the M package I can't watch it. Bit annoyed as I get the SD version and I thought this was a FTA channel.

ITTV HD has listings for Friday and I can view that so looks like that is available to all of us which is great news

EuroSport HD is not a FTA channel and neither is EuroSport... are you on M+?

Very good point. I can only get BBC Alba via Zattoo on my desktop. However, like you, there is nothing on it I want to see. Kinda like S4C....

Yeah, you can upgrade for a minimum of 30 days and downgrade back to M+, not sure how long the Tour De France is?

Itv1 HD isn't in the tv guide listings on there:( Wish they would add it so we can see which shows will be airing in HD each day rather than upscaled SD.
