BBC 3/CBBCHD have started testing off EPG, and can be manually tuned on 10847 V 23000 8PSK DVB-S2 (for those with freesat or generic/FTA receivers)

Currently labelled as 6951and 6952

As a fan of Only Connect & the foreign crime dramas on a Saturday night, I wish they were doing BBC4 instead!

Completely agree. Having had Borgen in HD and now going back to SD for the last series is a real shame.

BBC 4 HD is coming 'early 2014', though as its also already testing, wondering if we may see it before Xmas along with BBC 3 HD which officially launches 10th december

BBC controller has tweeted out BBC 4 HD may be launched on/by 15th Dec, apparently..

Which makes sense, because they're already testing and if they don't by then, then they would have to wait to the new year due to Sky's policy of operating an EPG freeze for 3 weeks over the xmas period
