There are a handful more that we've missed out for reasons of we can't understand why anyone in the world would be interested in owning them in high definition (we left Strictly Ballroom in as an example - a perfectly decent film, but hardly crying out for 1080p). We still see more filler than substance in the schedules, worryingly: much though we love Groundhog Day, it ain't the kind of film that high definition enthusiasts, surely, are crying out for.

Great to see Torchwood in there, though: does this pave the way for a high definition Doctor Who boxset at the end of the year, we wonder...
