It's coming. Won't be long until HD is the standard. Some interesting figures from Ofcom:
http://stakeholders.ofcom.org.uk/mar...reland/ni-2.03
73% of UK homes have a HD TV. Those figures where published at the beginning of 2013. I'm sure I read something recently which confirmed we are now sitting at about 76% homes HD ready. 3% growth in just 8 months.
Virtually all new TV's sold are HD ready. Give it another 3 to 5 years and almost every home will have a HD TV. For those who chose not to adopt HD, I'm sure some kind of SD Freeview service will linger on behind the scenes.

The usual speculation. Seems there is a new rumour every week just prior to a Thursday.
The main suggestion is that SKY and Virgin are on the brink or agreeing a new carriage agreement.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 4.
A new app has been added to the TIVO called TV upgrades where you can now add the premium channels (Sky Sports, Sky Movies, Box Nation, MUTV, Racing UK, Asian Mela, Picturebox and Baby TV) directly through the box.
