I'm confused. According to my Freesat+ box practically everything on ITV is in HD(both Anglia and ITV HD). The only difference is local news is not HD while London news is HD. Yet on my Sky box next to nothing is in HD.

As it is upscaled and broadcast as a HD channel, the box asumes it is HD.

I see the EPG details from 06:00 Sunday 11 April have gone walkabout as well, on Channel 119.

That's probably because ITV have run out of money to keep the channel going after next Sunday

It sounds like you're confusing what ITV1 HD is showing.

If you watch ITV1 on channel 3, then you'll get your local news and ITV National news.

However, as there is only 1 HD feed for the whole country at the moment (satellite and freeview HD), there are no regions, therefore ITV show London Today/Tonight as the "local" news programme on ITV1 HD and then the ITV National news as normal.

Both London Today/Tonight and the ITV national news are produced in standard definition, and upscaled to HD resolutions by ITV.
