Hi Folks,
I am just wondering if Sky when received via a Satellite in High Definition (assuming one has the appropriate decoder and HD Ticket)?

And Sky only broadcasts via satellite.

TwoSeven: Thanks,
Do the normal freeview equiv. channels TV1, 2, C3 etc also get broadcast in HD (when there is HD content)?

On Freeview Satellite - No.
On Sky, I believe so but can't confirm as I don't have HD capable Sky STB.
On Freeview UHF - Definitely.
Igloo - Don't know.

Relatives are moving outside of the freeview UHF broadcast area, so are looking at Sky as an alternative, but they have an HDTV and just need to know that HD content on normal free to air channels will still be in HD.
