Has anything ever been recorded by the Top Gear boys about their opinion
of gritty Aussie Fords, i.e, B series Falcons? (Maybe they've never heard of them?) |

Not necessarily. For example, when Simpsons went HD, the size of the files remained at 175Mb

 : No comparison though. Cartoons use a lot of solid, constant colours which compress really well. I'd be expecting at least double the size of the current download. |

 How about that my movie collection is roughly 700Mb each when they're similar in length, yet some are SD, some HD.

If the size of the file is small then the resolution is degraded.
I wonder how Top Gear has been sold on Bluray at 1080P if it has never been recorded in HD? Maybe it has just never been broadcast in HD before. |

True Blood HD is 590-700mb per episode, 1 hour.If you haven't seen this, as Molly would say "do yourself a favour " sex, violence ,Vampires being bad Vampires, Has Steve Kawanten in it, ex=Home and Away.. usual HBO excellence.

SBS says it's 720p when watching on SBS HD.
Forget about it being broadcast in 1080p though, it won't happen for the foreseeable future. Most it will ever be is 1080i at the moment. |

Only the Polar special was recorded in HD, as far as I know this is the only one to be released so far on Blu Ray
The rest are recorded and broadcast in 576p (Despite what SBSHD says, likely upscaled to 720p)

just some useless helpful information
HD is and will only ever be classified in 4 different resolutions 720i 720p 1080i (aka FULL HD) 1080p (aka FULL HD) SD or easier terms this is what your DVD player outputs without upscaling is 576i 576p in reference to the file sizes, its gets even more confusing when you factor in the bitrate (or FPS) of the HD broadcast.... and also what your TV/display can output and what your recording device can input the more frames per second the more information to record the bigger the filesize

720p rips of shows of around 45min length in x264 and 5.1 are 1.1gb.
so as campo said about 1gb-1.3gb would be on the money.
