Interesting article, but the images I'm getting are all extremely low quality. Tried both Chrome & FF.

EDIT: Well, downvotes or not, I'd still like to know what is going on. Here is a screenshot of part of my browser window while viewing the article.

I assume others are getting higher quality images (?).

It was fine for me, although the images were much delayed on loading, so there is some javascript acting there. Are you using noscript?

> Are you using noscript?

No. The only thing I explicitly block is flash. (Also, I don't recall having a problem like this before.)

What url do you have for the bad images?

Probably this isn't worth a whole lot of work; I guess it thinks I'm on a phone (I'm not).

What's your user agent? Maybe you set it funny and forgot.

Are you using ghostery? I was seeing something similar until I allowed Brightcove to load through ghostery

Not using ghostery.

> I was seeing something similar ....

Well, then it isn't just me. Something about the BBC site's resolution handling is borked, I guess.
