Freeview to get one more HD channel

OFCOM has announced that Freeview is to get a fifth HD channel and has invited the UK's commercial free-to-air channels - ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5 - to bid. No BBC for this one as it already has BBC HD and BBC One HD on the platform. Freeview also has ITV1 HD and 4HD, so I would imagine the new slot will go to ITV2 HD, Five HD or maybe E4 HD.

Five HardlyAnyHD.
My least watched HD channel on Virgin, they don't even broadcast their flagship CSIs in HD.
