Four random episodes have been made available:

Season 6, Episode 6 "Pen Pal"
Season 6, Episode 12 "The Baby Blue Expression"
Season 6, Episode 13 "The Man Who Found the Money"
and Season 6, Episode 37 "Make My Death Bed" (the penultimate episode of the season).
According to my "crystal ball" (otherwise known as the 2 week Virgin planner, Sky Arts are only showing the 4 episodes of season 6 mentioned above and are then going back to the beginning again. Why those 4 particular episodes, I've no idea.

In other news, my Sky channels were all upgraded to the HD channels last Wednesday on Virgin (the SD channels gone altogether). Along with ITV2/3/4 and TCM.

As a result I'm now recording Quantum Leap which started again on Sky SciFi nowHD on that day, and Magnum PI on ITV4 nowHD which was right at the end of season 2 (the first episode I recorded in HD was the episode with the actor who played Chin Ho Kelly in the original 5-0 appearing as some kind of Vietnam army commander turned drug lord, and the second episode had Higgins pretending to be his dead "half-brother" from Texas in order to save a circus - and yes it was as bad as it sounds!)
