The long-anticipated HD versions of BBC One's English regions look set to launch as soon as next month. Up until now BBC One has only been available in SD quality across its 12 regional variants, plus three sub-regional variants, in England, although a generic HD version of BBC One has been available, complete with an infamous holding screen whenever regional programmes are broadcast.

Re: HD versions of BBC One's regions
The rollout of BBC One regional HD channels on Freesat, Freeview and Sky has been put back until early 2023. I don't think the BBC realised how complex it would be. They are already in HD on Virgin and streaming services (that was the easy bit).
