BBC confirms date for first EastEnders HD broadcast

EastEnders is to be broadcast in high-definition for the first time on Christmas Day.

The BBC has revealed that EastEnders is to be broadcast in HD for the first time on Christmas Day, allowing viewers to catch all the festive Walford drama in even more vivid detail.

The show will be broadcast on the new BBC One HD channel which is set to launch on Wednesday 3rd November, across all HD platforms.

Bryan Kirkwood, executive producer of EastEnders, says: "Christmas Day in Walford is traditionally turkey, tinsel and turmoil for the residents of Albert Square. This year will be even more spectacular with viewers having the opportunity to watch the festive drama unfold in HD for the first time."

Shows which aren’t made in HD – including EastEnders up until Christmas Day – will still be on BBC One HD from 3rd November but will be upscaled.
