01.10.10: This will be a day long remembered....
...It will see the end of people asking "Where the frack is Sky 1 HD!???", it will soon see the end of the Not-Enough-HD-on-Cable Rebellion.
If someone said to me 1 year ago, "hey, HDFootyMan, you'll be watchng Champions League Footy on SS2 HD and oh, by the way, Sky 1 HD is actually, seriously, really coming real soon!", then my response back then would have been unsuitable for a family-friendly, Digital cable forum.
The forthcoming red-button service will be the icing on the cake. So, well done Virgin and keep the HD coming.
* This post contains no sarcasm whatsoever.

I'm actually watching most of my TV now in HD. Didn't see that being a realistic possibility around 1 year ago.
The only programmes I watch in SD now is BBC news; Merlin and Match of the Day, and the arrival of BBC 1 HD should fix that.

True, SS3 in SD as well, but most of the big games (Premier League/Champions League) are on SS1 HD/SS2 HD.
Of course, there's good old ESPN HD as well. FA Cup games to come on that channel next year.

Long remembered?

I'm more interested in the 7th 10 2010 myself. .

Re: 01.10.10: This will be a day long remembered....
Are any threads available that I can moan in HD?
Will this be free on XL?
Will we get it before Skyforum?
Will Nagra 3 prevent immigrants reading my posts? Trade Unionists too?
Have I been spending too much time on CF?
