Yep, as it stands all the pictures coming from the house of commons are in SD.
Some time ago I was sitting in one of the MP's offices. Each MP has a monitor with a live feed of the main chamber.
When I remarked about the old fashioned CRT SD monitors, I was told that it would be pointless to upgrade them as all the pictures received were in SD.
There was a suggestion that the delay in making a decision about upgrading was down to some MP's not wanting to be seen too closely in HD!

In normal circumstances*, BBC4 shares it's capacity with the daytime channel CBeebies.
* This can change for things like the Olympics etc.
