Sky SD/HD new channels thread. Coming soon/launch dates.
Time now for a thread we can always go to to get upto date info on any new HD channels confirmed and those rumoured.
When is FIVE HD coming? Hallmark HD, testing? Channel number? Sky2HD? Sky Sports News HD? BBC1HD? Bravo HD? Living HD? Any chance this can happen? Regards, Dan. |

Agreed we need this thread to be a sticky so people can be kept up to date on new channels without having to search the forum.

Still no sign of ESPN America HD as yet.
The Anytime preview today has several programmes and a launch special confirming it will be on Sky channel 431 from today. (In fact the preview says it is available now - which so far is untrue) ![]() New addtions to the EPG usually do arrive in the morning, though. |

Off topic, but did ESPN get all of the old Setanta EPG slots?
Wondered why ESPN America HD was launching on 431, and just realised it used to be Rangers TV. |

Setanta (the new version of the company) managed to get 433/437 for MSK. Last edited by aberboy : 21-06-2010 at 16:27. Reason: missed out a sentance |

For the record, from reports and my observations. ESPN America HD went live on the EPG around 14.40 today.

Would a clone of the weekly thread in the Sky forum be appropriate? Quote:
