Will a Sky HD box with a normal SD sky+ subscription? 
 
And would it receive the BBC HD channels for free?

No you don't, you get the freesat HD channels if you only use a sky freesat card.

I just checked my sky+ card in the HD box, works exactly as I expected, you get bbc hd and channel 4 hd and all the free ones.

You will also be able to get ITV HD once you get the new planner (google on how to add it)

You'd get the free to air HD channels with any HD box.
