MPEG4 is more efficient use of bandwith, but both should give the same end result as far as picture quality.
It's well known that the satellite feed has a lower bitrate to begin with from the BBC, this has made a few people complain on satellite about the picture quality of BBC HD channels.

I cannot see much difference myself but it is a bit clearer (and we now have a new 46" set so it's not because of our older 32" TV being too small.

I don't watch EE, but i think my post earlier may explain?

Isn't EE filmed months in advance anyway? So the xmas episode was probably HD, but episodes you are seeing now may have been filmed earlier?
