			That's all well and good but many of the XL channels have gone into the lower tier packages so what are we getting to replace them? Maybe a few HD versions of the current SD channels like Universal would be a start.

  Unfortunately, that is no big deal, MB.  Nice to have but I won't be waiting up all night for them to appear!

 Both Channels are "Sky Basic" HD Channels so will appear in XL Package (Just like Sky1 HD do).

  But what are these 'decent' channels?
 
Sky Atlantic is the only one we haven't got that floats my boat, and that has plenty of rubbish associated with it as well.
 
I would like to see an Australian channel showing the best of their programming.  Unfortunately, that country doesn't seem to have done anything to 'internationalise' any of their channels - at least I am unaware of them.
