BBC HD was a high-definition television channel owned by the BBC. The channel was initially run as a trial from 15 May 2006 until becoming a full service on 1 December 2007 before its discontinuation on 25 March 2013. It broadcast only during the afternoon and evening and only broadcast material shot in high definition, either in a simulcast with another channel or by inserting a repeat of an HD programme. The channel featured a mix of programmes from the channels BBC One, BBC Two, BBC Three, BBC Four, CBBC and CBeebies, although earlier and later in its existence programmes from BBC One and BBC Two were given priority. All programmes that aired on the UK version of the channel were produced in high definition. The channel also carried coverage of sport and music events, with some coverage being broadcast in experimental formats such as 3D television. The channel closed for the final time at 01:20 am on the night of Monday 25 March 2013, and was replaced with BBC Two HD the following day on Tuesday 26 March, partly as a result of budget cuts affecting the entire corporation. New HD versions of the existing BBC channels would launch on 10 December 2013.
