It's a simulcast of ITV1 London (to begin with - see ITV1 HD thread) It's in the VM EPG now though isn't it?

I'll have a look and see...


Yeah HD flags on HD programmes in the EPG

ESPN2 is rumoured to arrive this year, but there won't be an ESPN2 HD from launch.

I'm afraid I don't know everything about ESPN, and unfortunately I can't comment either way regarding the Superleague Formula.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010)

I dont know if it's just me but got itv1HD on and I cannot see any difference at all. Now I know the program being shown is not in HD but on 4hd there is noticable upscaled difference even where as this looks exactly the same.

Sorry but I must disagree, I thought ITV1 pixalated quite alot but on ITV1 HD the picture is sharp and clear.
