I was told about Five HD late on Monday (But I was offline)

Is it me or do Vm seem to be very low key in this particular announcement. No press release, no statement from five, its almost like getting extra channels and hd is like a back door illegal operation, shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh............. don't tell anyone but we've added some more hd but shhhhhhhhhh

The upscaled kiddies programmes (and even the ads) look very nice indeed - hopefully a sign of good HD to come. I hope the Mentalist is in HD. Note to self: cancel series record and re-do on 150.

Very happy about this. I reckon Sky thought they had this in the bag!

Jabbs · 13-07-2010, 08:53

Is this set to stay or just a test of it.

bayards · 13-07-2010, 08:53

A few teething problems apparent - just cut to ads and no sound. Like this though!! lol
