I think Gervais is one of those you either love or loathe , however I agree the show is very funny.

Re: General Sky TV Discussion
Could this mean More 4 HD and Film4 HD could arrive in the not so distant future on Satellite
The new capacity on ASTRA 1N will be used to transmit Channel 4's main high-definition (HD) service together with further HD services over the coming years.

But there does not seem to be that much content apart from the Sky stuff and a few one offs being done by the Factual channels.

Prices for 3DTV's are dropping to a level were more people are considering it. Sky now have an ok range of 3D content which will expand more as 3DTV owners increase. Golf , Cricket , Boxing and Football are excellent in 3D as are certain movies however I will say the SBS format broadcasters use comes nowhere near as good as Frame Sequential 3D used in Blu Ray.

Re: General Sky TV Discussion
According to this public appetite for 3D still has a long way to go.
