BBC Issues High-Def Sports Timetable
Sports in HD is one of the key selling points for the Beeb’s fledgling
high-def TV service as it goes head-to head with Sky and NTL in the next
generation TV wars. Kick-off will take place at the start of January y with the
major
FA Cup weekend games from the third round. High def coverage will extend
for the whole competition.
Six Nations rugby will also be on show with all of the England, Wales
and Scotland games being broadcast alongside BBC One’s coverage. The fixture
list looks like this:
* Saturday February 3: 16.00pm, England vs Scotland.
* Sunday February 4: 15.00pm, Wales vs Ireland
* Saturday February 10: 13.30, England vs Italy, and 15.30pm Scotland vs
Wales
* Saturday February 24: 15.00pm, Scotland vs Italy
* March 10: 13.30pm Scotland vs Ireland
* March 11: 15.00pm England vs France
* March 17: 20.00pm Wales vs England
Even if you're not a sports fan, it's a good way to test the performance of your new HDTV and it's a welcome brreak from all that National Geographic stuff.




Question Please?
I have a HDTV set and are a Sky user.
I do not subscribe to Sky's HDTV service :-
1)Too Expensive
2)My Picture is already fantastic
Will I be able to get HDTV through SKY when the BBC start transmitting next year?
Thankyou
