ITV HD: Available on Freesat now

Suranne Jones

ITV HD brings you television in stunning high definition.


With an incredibly sharp picture, rich, saturated colours and more detail then ever before, it’s the closest you’ll get to the action – without being there.

ITV HD is a red-button service available exclusively to freesat customers, and select sporting events, movies and dramas -including Harley Street - are available in HD.

So whenever you’re watching ITV1 and an ITV HD logo pop up at the top of your screen, just press the red button on your remote control to watch it in glorious High Definition.

And it’s not just the picture that will benefit – in future many shows, events and movies will be broadcast in stunning surround sound.

But how can you get ITV HD? Is having an HD-ready TV enough? And where does freesat fit in? All these questions, and more, are answered by ITV Sport’s Craig Doyle in his quick guide to HD, along with our more detailed Q&A with freesat’s James Atkins.
