Perhaps I'm being quite naive here, but I can't see any rhyme or reasoning behind half of those channel moves. It looks as though they're trying to bunch the HD channels together and the SD/+1s together but Eden throws that theory out the window I think.

It's a mess really, they should have introduced a remap feature where choosing a sd channel will actually show the HD version when the feature is enabled. Does sky work like this?

I think the problem with that is that not all HD channels are simulcast with their SD counterpart, sometimes the content actually differs (The BBC HD channels are a good example of this).

BBC1 HD still doesn't transmit the local news bulletin, you just get a placeholder
