Supposed to be launched at 12:01 am last night. Checked this morning and I dont have channel 108.

Anyone else got it yet and any ideas why I would be missing it?

The changes moving some of the HD channels have happened i.e. sky 1 HD has moved higher up the list so my system must be able to receive updates, although when I checked the network settings on the sky box they were all blank.

any ideas? I dont want to miss board walk empire!!

Well the blurb I got through the post said the channel (maybe not the programmes) would be available from midnight last night.

Hope it magically appears by tonight!

Surely its a ploy! I hate how much money I give to sky but as we cant get vigin I dont think theres much of an alternative. After ice broke our sky dish over christamas we were left with freeview - it was terrible!

Does anyone know if you have to be a HD subscriber to get this or is one of the free HD chanels sky offer?

Used to subscribe to sky HD, but dropped it last year, but still get some free HD chanels off sky.

108 here too.

I notice that the HD channels haven't appeared in the 100s for the old terrestrial channels; wonder if that's cos it's BBC1 North West rather than BBC1 That London?

All the listings are on my Sky+ app on my Iphone so i've just set it to record Boardwalk Empire tonight.

Seems that the blurb says 'also in HD' so it's not HD only.

That sounds imminently sensible. Why would you need the SD channel if you've got a HD subscription?

They have replaced all the standard def channels with hd for hd subscribers

FYI: Boardwalk empire is on 3 times this week, and it didn't series link properly. I had to set each one individually.

Magnum is in it. That's all I know. Hopefully he'll still have his Ferrari.....

Finally got around to around to watching BE, seemed pretty good but FFS the Atlantic logo is annoyingly big.
