Yep I saw that ad on Prime too, during one of the Rugby replays. I think I
still have the recording floating around. I was wondering how they would
manage to get HD down the pipe, and naively just thought they had figured
something out.

I guess if I saw the same ad on an Analog broadcast I would've been able to
accept that HD was a Sky-only thing. But on a HD capable medium like
Freeview HD it's a bit lame to not point it out.

Do most consumers consider Prime on Freeview HD to actually be HD already /
not care?
