There is a 5th HD channel up for grabs but I think that’s expected around 2013
The whole thing seems to be one big merry go round - All free to air channels have to apply to Ofcom for HD channel or any extra channel and allow the others to agree or disagree - Its called fair trading.
Thats the basics and I'm sure there is more behind it but don’t want to start another debate on how rubbish Ofcom really is for us consumers
