More Sopranos added

Season three of The Sopranos has started to appear in HD TV Choice on Demand - the first three episodes are in my area. Also, season two's been given a stay of execution and looks like it'll be around until the middle of August.

Sopranos and ER in HD ?

Virgin Media have the first six episodes of The Sopranos available On Demand in "High Definition". I know that from the second season the show was filmed in HD (see story here) but was unaware the first was available in HD. Dates from 1997
Also the pilot of ER is listed as HD. I watched this last night and I don't think this is high definition either. Cracking bit of TV, but it dates from 1994 and unless it was shot on film I suspect it's been upscaled. According to Wikipedia:

ER is unique in that the series was filmed in 16:9 anamorphic widescreen from the start, even though it did not air in widescreen until the seventh season when it began appearing in the 1080i HD format where NBC was being broadcast digitally.

Anyone know more?
