Now come on people, there is so much HD being broadcast in the UK the BBC needs the viewers to be able to identify it's output and give thanks in a proper way for their generosity and after a lot of time and money it was found that their previous DOG was just not doing the job hence the new one. *  * Sponsored by the LCD manufacturers.

There is a thread over in the sky hd forum, with details on how to complain.

The BBC could have made their HD channel a bit special and different from the rest by having the DOG disappear during evening programmes.
Now it seems the only way to view un-dogged broadcast HDTV is to subscribe to Sky Arts and Movies.
Does no-one at the Beeb see what a ludicrous situation this is?

Ive not got HD TV but again find it ironic that I would invest a lot of money to get the best picture possible to have the picture ruined by a DOG

On the Digital Spy thread about this a BBC HD worker seems to have posted that this was a technical error and not a permanent change.

Spot on Garrett. It's so b***** annoying. Why can't they see they're putting off a large number of people who would otherwise invest. People who are interested in quality. I guess we're just too thick to understand.
