You're right, it's not a rumour, it's just plain incorrect.

Ofcom didn't set a price for HD, they agreed with Sky that it was a developing market and that setting a set price on it could prevent future innovation. Instead they ruled it must be offered on "fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory basis" Section 1.7 in the statement deals with it.

In the third review they proposed that price, but then decided not to implement any fixed pricing.
