Yes, I've just got a 32" Samsung TV that is a full HD (1080p) panel, and there is a clear difference when watching nature programmes in HD, especially when BBC HD repeat the Planet Earth series. And I really notice the extra detail when there are close ups on the animals.
Other programmes aren't so impressive in HD - the Doctors soap for example. It seems to vary a lot from programme to programme. Whether this is down to the TV or the BBC's HD output, I'm not sure.
On the other hand, I've just got a Blu-ray player and the images from that look stunning on the TV, and are a big improvement over DVD. Blade Runner has never looked better
