The excuse given is "Customers in Scotland and Northern Ireland won’t receive ITV 1 HD, as STV and UTV don’t give access to branded services from ITV 1", but we can already get ITV1 on channel 861, so what's the problem?
We have to wait for STV to go HD - that'll be never!
I'm surprised I haven't read any comments about this on this forum.
How can we get this sorted - after all, this is probably one of the most important channels - let's face it, BBC HD is only part time and chooses to carry random programmes not all of which benefit from HD presentation.

It's not a excuse, it's a reason. ITV1 HD is a simulcast of ITV1 London in HD, the only reason you are getting the 853 channel is because the audio description feed is only broadcast on the London feed.
It's a English/Welsh regional channel. we don't get STV or UTV
