 I will! :^)

 Yes. I do realise that.

This is Wednesday, right? - Radio Times actually flags almost all the
programs for today as being available in HD (including The Route Masters
at 23.20). It doesn't mention whether they're actually captured in HD in
the first place though, and no longer has separate listings for BBC One
and BBC Two HD.  Not surprised that some people are confused!

Anyhow, this conversation doesn't really belong on this mailing list,
but thanks for your thoughts.
