A long time. Even iPlayer which has been around for years only has a very limited selection of HD on demand. Plus they don't offer it on their own site unlike the beeb.

Was it actually broadcast in HD though? or just on ITV HD?

It was actually broadcast in HD, if you go on HD catch up there are only BBC shows available in HD and in the press release when ITV1HD launched it said that we were going to get HD shows on demand

Very true... not sure why ITV and VM haven't got HD On Demand content from ITV1HD yet.

Regardless of context, Coming soon to Virgin TV is a statement of fact.

If I made a thread saying that this evening I am having Chicken Fajitas for dinner would you expect it to be any less true than if I told you on the phone, in a letter, via a carrier pigeon, text message or it was announced on the news?

On Digital Spy http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/forums/s...82617&page=173 see post 4311 the guys who watch ESPN America in HD on sky have been complaining for sometime about the poor picture quality and ESPNA have admitted there is a problem. Apparently it is taking time to track down , this may be why there has been a delay in launching the channel.
