So Virgin may not have Sky News HD or Sky Sports News HD but we can watch BBC News HD on BBC One HD for about 60 hours per week.
There has been some speculation over at TV Forum about what is coming soon.

There is a suggestion that the main TV bulletins at 1 o'clock, 6 o'clock and 10 o'clock will be in HD from early March. The BBC News channel will launch in HD a few weeks later.

Reported sources for this information is a leaked Powerpoint presentation plus Tweets from BBC employees.
