Sky's HD aquarium

Are you an insomniac who likes to relax and unwind by looking at swimming fish? If so, Aquarivision could be for you. It's shown every night, 2am-3am, on Sky's Artsworld HD channel.

Of course, you could just record it on your Sky HD box and enjoy it at any time of the day.

Actually, it's not really an aquarium at all - it's high-def film footage of fish swimming in the tropics of the Indian Ocean.
Yep, it's another taster of what HD can offer, whilst we wait for larger quantities of this elusive content in the UK. It will be broadcast until 30th September. I wonder what they'll show then?

A dog scratching himself or a cat licking itself are my bets .

I am wishing to wait a little longer before making the switch over to HD,we bought a 35" JVC plasma just over 2 years ago paying £1600 via the web so trying to get a bit more mileage out of it.
Otherwise I think I would have been tempted to upgrade which more mean spending extra cash on the Sky HD box & £10.00 per month on the subscription.
