Quite true, there would have to be a huge investment in the whole broadcast chain to go hi-def. But this is what we pay the licence fees for!
As far as I know the Beeb are already filing some stuff in HD, I think Walking with Dinosours, or Blue Planet or one of these was - so they're already starting to build a library of content.
