I say again, read paragraphs 104-109 in Part 5, and take them in context in
the document. It shows that the BBC is not ruling out HDTV, is happy to
produce content in HDTV, but has no formulated plan for broadcast of HDTV.
It would require analogue switch-off to implement HD broadcasts
terrestrially, and the BBC has no direct interest in any satellite
broadcaster, so is at the mercy of others for delivery.
