Fair enough, I've watched it in 'High Quality'

[Imosae]

Yeah but thats High Quality where talking about High Definition here

HQ = High Quality
HD = High Definition

High Quality is no where near as HD if you know what i mean

Yay, love for BBC Iplayer! Unlike the ITV iplayer which just seems to play advert after advert for me without buffering the actual show!

BBC Iplayer + HD = brilliant

Any idea what sort of internet connection you'll need for this?

Can't wait for this, some of it seems rather poor quality atm so it should be much better.
