I thought Stargate SG-1 wasn't filmed in HD

I'm not sure if it is or not, or perhaps they're switching over to the HD filming for the new seasons. If that's the case, then that pretty much wraps up concern that Sky won't be showing the new seasons later this year. It's unlikely they'd sell it, anyway, so there's no worry.

I'm not sure exactly how HD works when broadcasted, but I don't think it has to be recorded in HD to be presented in HD. But as I said, I'm no expert on that matter.
