Pick (151) & Sky Replay ( 145) are too only available in SD quality.

I don't use Sky Glass. I know Pick & Sky Replay are both broadcast in SD over satellite. It wasn't clear from your question, that your were asking about Sky Glass.

Sorry I meant Sky Platforms in general was my bad but odd they haven't made Pick HD on Satellite as well.

Pick is available on Freesat & Freeview so it's probably not cost effective to pay the extra to upscale content shown on that channel. Pick+1 was recently closed down as well. There are alot of older programmes shown on Pick that go back 15/20 years maybe more so before HD most of it.

No idea, but if it's SD-only then it's not there.

Are some upscaled ?

 

As far as I am aware Drama part of the UKTV group is only available in SD (although I might need to check the actual date of the email they confirmed this to me late last year)  but it is listed on Glass

There are lots of SD only channels on Glass, including Challenge.
