Cutscenes in Skyrim aren't really cutscenes.  You're just stuck in place in the game world.  The scenes playout in no greater fidelity than gameplay.  So they are no more demanding than gameplay and also don't have the kind of transitions needed to mask a switch to prerendered graphics.

Yeah I've seen the intro movie and was thinking "that would be pointless/impossible since your character has to be there" but was thinking there might be stuff later like I said with cut aways to a different scene, I'm sure digital foundry will be taking the iso of the game apart while I put on my master sword and Wizards hat and cut up all 14.3GB of this thing next month :D

Thinking back to when I played the game through I can't think of any. You're always in the scene in the game world, there isn't any real difference to normal gameplay in terms of fidelity and I think you can always switch to 3rd person mode in the cut-scenes. It would be odd for them to put in video and restrict the player.
