AIUI not all SD channels will close. Those without an HD duplicate will remain.

However, they will no longer be accessible to SD boxes, only HD capable boxes as they will be moving across to S2.

Very few as, when the BBC ceased their SD channels, there were far fewer people contacting the help schemes than was envisaged.

In turn this has encouraged ITV & Sky to start shutting down their SD channels. Other broadcasters are bound to follow suit.
