I don't think anyone would normally want to get something new up and running just before Christmas because of increased levels of annual leave and fewer people to sort out any major issues.

However, Southampton are already fully HD in terms of gallery and other infrastructure, so this might be a more straightforward installation as it's just a set replacement. That's assuming that IKEA delivered all the necessary parts.

Although, isn't that technically true of all the set updates - they just replace the sets, don't they? With other upgrades rolling out separately?

In fact, I wondered if Southampton might be a little more involved, as it'll be the first time a new set has been tested alongside the new HD gallery kit?
