C4 HD picking up

August is always a poor month on Channel 4 (unless you like Big Brother) and it's been a particularly dry time for those of us sampling C4HD for the first time. Mercifully, September sees things pick up on the channel especially with films and here are some of the HD programmes coming our way for the week from Saturday:

Saturday

19.05 and 20.05 ER
21.00 Film: World Trade Center
23.30 Film: Hustle & Flow
01.40 Film: Mean Creek

Sunday

09.25 Hollyoaks Omnibus (and every week day at 18.30)
13.00 Teen Choice Awards
14.50 Ugly Betty
20.00 Come Dine With Me
22.40 Film: Lucky Number Slevin

Monday

23.10 Film: Straightheads

Tuesday

23.35 Coming Up
00.05 The Kevin Bishop Show

Wednesday

13.20 Film: Batman (1966)

Thursday

13.25 Film: Fantastic Voyage
01.15 Film: Against the Ropes

Friday

01.10 Film: Knights of the South Bronx

It's still not brilliant (but you can't blame Virgin for that) and it's disapponting that so many of C4's new homegrown programmes are still only in SD (Jaime Oliver, Dispatches, Location Location etc) but the films are most welcome.

The LivingHD barker is SD - and very poor SD at that!

It's there to entice non V+ customers (or V+ customers without XL) to upgrade.
