Yep, sorry for dragging Blu-ray into it I just wanted to make the point that the HD I've seen on Virgin('s only HD channel) seems to vary a bit in quality whereas with the Blu-rays I've watched, the quality seems to be a step up (admittedly I've only watched a small number so far). But that's enough of Blu-ray.

Anyway, in my opinion, HD TV material does look noticeably better then SD stuff, and I'm sure that difference only increases when you watch it on a bigger TV/projector. With my last TV, a 26" 720p set, I could hardly notice the change in quality.
