Re: ITV1 HD on Virgin
Probably! Add that to Eritrea and Azerbaijan recently! Still home for 2 days at Easter to catch a glimpse of ITV 1 HD - they had better have the films on in HD!!

Re: ITV1 HD on Virgin
Isn't the 2nd Good Friday? Seems like a odd day to launch a channel, especially as I am off work for the 12 days running up to it and then back to work on the 2nd

Re: ITV1 HD on Virgin
I'm interested in finding out whether there is an issue for those in Scotland.
I was looking forward to ITV HD, and praying that we can see it in Scotland, despite Kill joys STV.
(though as an agnostic, I'm still working out what or who to pray to )
