Nerdy Alert!
Sorry to create confusion re ITV picture quality. Having watched the England game on an HD set with picture via SKY, the ITV picture in Standard definition is inferior to any other channel. Brovian is correct there has been a learned debate on here in the past and it's all to do with how ITV broadcast the different regions. Apparantly we in the South do not get a good SD picture but I think it's the West Country that does.
I also have Freeview and here again the ITV PQ is the worst. That may change with the improved signal when Analogue is switched off in 2012
I do know that ITV High Definition was available for the match but I have yet to receive the EPG upgrade from Sky which enables me to get it via "Other Channels".
Hope that clears up any confusion.
