    ntl digital is not a HD service. You'll need to get a HD source to see high definition pictures. The xbox 360, PS3, Sky HD, Blu ray players and HD DVD players all output HD material.

    Some DVD players upscale to HD resolutions, but while that's not really HD, it does come quite close.

    For HD TV broadcasts, you need the SkyHD service. NTL does not broadcast in HD at this time.

    as an alternative to skyHD, there's a great service just launched called Freesat. subscription-free tv. the HD box is £149. it has bbc hd and itv hd and everything else is in SD. but there will be more channels being added over the next couple of months.
