I too have a 32" TV and can't see any difference

( the difference though that if you want HD & therefore have to use an HDMI cable on a V+ box it knocks out

1. the Scart/Additional RF output and
2. thereby stuffs any carefully set up TV signal distribution you have created based on the extra signal outputs )

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. III.

And of course the HD box upscales SD to HD so seeing the difference is more diffucult. Not if you compare to terestrial though.

I have an LG 42" Cinema 3D TV and the difference between SD and HD is immense.

If it's not here for this football season I'm jumping ship to Sky. No messing about now. Virgin have had enough time to sort this out. Vote with your money and maybe they will do something.
