Got this on the planner, but does anyone know if it will be broadcast in HD?

I wondered the same, but a long search revealed nothing - though it did indicate some HD cameras were used - but that isn't in itself an indication it will be edited and broadcast in HD....

If BBC are true to form, expect it to be announced on BBC HD no sooner than it finishes on BBC1 and we have already watched it...

Re: Pacific Abyss

Thats the usual BBC service for HD. Watch new programs first in SD assuming they will not be in HD and then find them all a week later or later in the evening in HD..... they have done that with almost all of their Natural World/History programs. I just Sky+ them now and delay my veiwing for a week and then see if they come on HD a bit later....

Exactly my view. I also will wait for it to turn up in HD, if it doesn't, well they've lost another viewer...
