Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ One Wales HD launched today and is now available for
viewers in Wales on Freeview HD, Sky HD, Virgin Media, Freesat HD and YouView.
.
This is good news for viewers in Wales who want the HD
experience but also want Wales specific programming. No longer will our HD
viewers have to keep on channel hopping from Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ One HD to the standard
definition version of Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ One Wales when it’s time for Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Wales Today.
Μύ
It also means that a range of other programmes, such as this
week’s editions of Welsh Towns (tonight featuring Wrexham), Wales
in a Year and Police 24/7, are now available for
the first time in high definition. We’ll also have many more high quality
programmes from Wales in HD over the coming weeks and months.
Today’s launch is a result of significant
investment in facilities and broadcast equipment – all the more
significant given the current financial climate.ΜύThis investment has been
made to ensure that viewers in Wales have the best possible programmes, both
editorially and technologically.
I hope viewers enjoy the new service.
