Torchwood, on the other hand, is filmed in HD, and you can sometimes find samples of it playing in John Lewis department stores to show off their HD sets.
Ahh - sorry - corrected! I knew one of them was filmed in HD - I thought it was Dr Who - but yes Torchwood still stands as an example. And a better one as it was a chance spin-off and they wern't sure the public would take to it. Even so they put the faith into it and filmed it in HD anyway!

Or are you just using Connexions 4 London for your own backbone transport and any broadband (including cable for this of us that don't have a fixed line or BT or Cable) provider will work?
If it only works only with Connexions 4 London that does kinda limit the installation base.
