Five HD on Sky+ HD - An HDTV is even more appealing

With shows such as Flashforward, CSI, Numb3rs and The Mentalist, channel Five have a great collection of great shows which will benefit from the high definition service and offer viewers and even more intense viewing experience. Five also shows sports and films which viewers will find much more appealing in HD format.

Five's Director of Strategy says "This is an exciting opportunity for Five. Our programme schedule is more suited to HD than any other free-to-air commercial broadcaster given the wide range of high quality series we broadcast, such as our top-rated line-up of US dramas. We're delighted to begin our HD journey with Sky".

And it seems that Sky are equally as interested saying that "We're delighted to announce the addition of Five HD to Sky+ HD, the UK's leading high-definition service'. Sky remains committed to delivering customers the best HD service available, and this means continuing to launch high-quality channels right across the schedule. With the best of free and pay TV now in HD, there's never been a better time to embrace HD."

The new Five HD channel will be available to Sky+HD viewers without the need for additional subscription fees
