They said September when it was first announced - though that would mean a very extended testing period

Well Film 4 have also been testing on freeview on the PSB 2 MUX and are planning a Film 4 + 1 in the place that Film 4 currently is on one of the com MUXs on freeview, so maybe they are planning to coinside the two events?

Hopefully the HD channel will be replaced with something else very soon I guess this was the wrong one to get a HD slot?
Wonder what other channel it could be and FILM 4 HD has its own slot all ready. They seem to be very few HD channels coming on this year? |

Well we're certain to get BBC Three HD, BBC Four HD, CBBC HD, CBeebies HD, BBC News HD and very likely to get Channel 4 +1 HD and 4Seven HD in the next 6 months. Film4 HD is the only other upcoming HD channel that I know of, which is already operational (just not on the EPG yet):

Well when you post such a comprehensive list I guess a lot of HD channels have launched this year just seems to have been very quiet for the past few months. |

Thread Title
Can the thread be given back its original intention and used for just the launch of HD Channels.
I was specific in the original thread title and located the thread in the HD section for that very reason. Can a moderator or Forum Support person fix this please. Or can I create a new thread and have it pinned for the launch of New HD Channels. |

New channel additions are always of interest, even if only fleetingly, whether they're available in HD or not.
One thread for all new channels on Sky makes perfect sense.

Oh was it? I just though that the BBC lauched them all at a similar time I didnt realise that BBC NI HD was launched that early.
NI was first due to digital switchover being completed first. the rest came later. |
