I find BBC's HD channels, like Sky's, something of a mixed bag. Zen on Sunday was pretty underwhelming, but Upstairs Downstairs looked good to me, as did Not Going Out last night.
Over on the Sky Movies channels some look very good, whereas with Modern Greats I often struggle to see a difference from the SD versions. Sky Sports football is okay, but when they show American Football it is eye-popping. Not all HD is equal, and I think Sky could be doing a better job with their offering too.
