But you still have to wear the funny glasses.

The UK has moved closer to 3D television after a demonstration of the technology by media firm and internet service provider BSkyB at its London headquarters.

Sky's digital satellite broadcast hardware delivered the content to a standard Sky+ HD system, which was then played back over a '3D Ready' TV.

The content, filmed with 3D TV equipment, featured the England v New Zealand rugby union test match and the Liverpool FC v Marseille UEFA Champions League match, among others.
