Sky has announced they'll be showing all of the sextology -- say <em>that</em> in mixed company! -- not once but <em>two times</em> on New Years Day on Sky HD, and in standard def as well. The first run will be in plotline order (I - VI) starting at 6am, with the theatrical release schedule (IV V VI I II III) starting after lunch. So grab your Stormtrooper costume, your Yoda slippers, and sit down in front of the telly for an entire day of HD goodness! And let the people without HD satellite be jealous of <em>you</em> for once.<h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href=http://www.pocket-lint.co.uk/news/news.phtml/5541/6565/sky-show-hd-star-wars.phtml>Read</a> | <a href="http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/11/15/star-wars-hd-for-sky-on-new-years-day/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a> | <a href="http://www.engadgethd.com/forward/702525/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a> | <a href="http://www.technorati.com/cosmos/search.html?rank=&fc=1&url=http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/11/15/star-wars-hd-for-sky-on-new-years-day/" title="Linking Blogs">Linking Blogs</a> | <a href="http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/11/15/star-wars-hd-for-sky-on-new-years-day/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a><br /><br /><p><map name="google_ad_map_65-702525"><area shape="rect" href="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/imgclick/65-702525?pos=0" coords="1,2,367,28" /><area shape="rect" href="http://services.google.com/feedback/abg" coords="384,10,453,23" /></map><img usemap="#google_ad_map_65-702525" border="0" src="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/ads?format=468x30_aff_img&client=ca-aol_weblogs_xml&channel=Engadget_Mobile_07_RSS&output=png&cuid=65-702525&url=http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/11/15/star-wars-hd-for-sky-on-new-years-day/" /></p>
