Re: Were is Channel 5 HD

Surely the question is why, rather than where?

Re: Were is Channel 5 HD

If you search Channel Five's web site for details of "Five HD" - what they're going to call their simulcast HD channel, you get pointed to this fascinating page: click

It's basically got nothing on the link.  Bodes well, along with all those comments about "cash-strapped" and "unable to commit to launch date for HD" being used about Channel 5...

Well to be fair, Five HD has been test broadcasting for couple of weeks now...So have no doubt it will appear imminently!

Re: Were is Channel 5 HD

I think 5 has a lot to offer for me anyway.


I like CSI and flashforward, and sometimes they have have some good movies on.


Also Film 4 is supposed to be HD soon as well.
