Whatever the issues with VM and BBC HD it's a great boost to have top games like these in HD.

I believe that the issue with the games outside of Britain being in SD is more to do with the BBC not being the host broadcaster of those games..

Presumably HD feed is not used by broadcasters in France, Italy and Ireland

Could be down to cost?

Danielle Nagler has indicated that cost has prevented a number of HD broadcasts being picked up.
