Sky HD – Top Batchelor-Pad Kit
“One of T3's staff took delivery of a Sky HD box shortly after they were unleashed. We haven't seen him since, and our last contact with him was a message that said, "The colours... the shapes... so beautiful, I could touch them... But Richard Keys' hairy hands... the horror..." Naturally, we terminated his employment immediately.”

Sports look amazing in HD
Mark Lawson about HDTV:
"Imagine a TV picture that's four times richer, more colourful and more detailed than one you
currently watch. Sports look amazing in HD and nature documentaries take you closer to animals
than you have been before."
