Why no BBC HD Listing in Radio Times Magazine

Thought I would write to the radio times to find out why they don't provide a listing for the BBC HD channel in the magazine. Response I got is below :

At the moment the BBC HD channel isn't an "official" channel and is in trial mode, so until the BBC Trust report on whether the BBC should have a public funded HD channel, which reports in November, then it is unlikely to be included in our printed billings I'm afraid.
We do indicate within our listings for BBCTV if a programme is available on HD (such as HEROES ).


My comments :

All very obvious when they are simultaneously showing HD stuff on BBC1-BBC4 not so obvious otherwise. Oh well.

Better still, why not use the 'TV Guide' in the menu bar at the top of this page?

It's FREE!
