'Harley Street' to be first ITV HD drama

ITV will air its first drama in high definition tomorrow with the heavily-trailed Harley Street, starring Paul Nicholls.

ITV HD launched last month with programming made available exclusively to Freesat viewers via the red button on ITV1. So far content has been limited to sports, including boxing and Euro 2008 football, and some films.

The six-part series set in London's famous medical district, which starts at 9pm, seeks to "gets behind the facade of suave medics treating celebrity and wealthy patients".
