I am expecting the new logo to come into place on Thursday in time for Sky News HD going live, and the debate and election HD programming.

Grounded: The Ash Crisis will also run tomorrow evening from 8pm to 10pm according to a recent amendment on Sky Programme Information.

Additionally Sky3 will carry the Leaders' Debate on Thursday.

Interesting how the standard Sky News logo appears to have been placed on top of the HD one (see reflections, both top and bottom)

Really like the glass panel effect.

Dosen't look like the Scottish Debate on Sunday is in HD anymore,

Julie-Anna Needham. Think she's been around for a few months now.

If the BBC Election coverage is on BBC HD then not much of it will actually be in HD - just the main studio.


To satisfy BBC Trust requirements at least 75% of the programme must be native HD.

That rule has been relaxed somewhat since they started HD. I would have thought that the election night programme wouldn't get under that threshold - very few, if any of the outside stuff would be in HD

I take it Sky 3 will show the debate as a clean feed with no graphics?

I wouldn't count on that to be honest.
