Expert’s advice will be much appreciated.

I found following info from a website and like to know more to reconfirm that I can get BBC HD channels without buying a HD Receiver:

LG 37" LCD HDTV Model No. 37LC2D

37" LCD HDTV: Get a picture with excellent brightness and outstanding detail from a television set that is stylishly thin at only 5.1" deep.

Built-in HD tuner: With the 37LC2D, it isn't necessary to buy a separate high-definition receiver. The HD (ATSC) tuner is integrated, so you can receive HD programming right out of the box. The HD picture resolution is 1366 x 768 (720p, effective).

Picture refinements: LG's exclusive XD Engine™ upconverts lower resolution signals to near-HD quality and reduces signal noise, while the TV's 1600:1 contrast ratio ensures that images are bright and vivid not dull looking. Plus, the TV's wide 178° viewing angle means that the picture looks great wherever you sit in the room.

Enhanced audio: Enjoying booming surround sound thanks to the 30-watt, two-speaker system and the SRS TruSurround audio enhancement feature.
Widescreen: The widescreen (16:9) aspect mode screen displays movies in their true cinematic format without picture cropping or resizing.

Full array of A/V cable connections: Features HDMI, component video, composite video, S-video, RGB (PC), digital audio out and RF connections.

They do LG tv in the UK & Ireland Dixons & Currys, Maybe a visit there might have one with the right tuner. Think they are a very good tv, lots of extras built into them.
