Re: Olympics - London2012
BBC's coverage has been mixed for me ok you can't fault the blanket coverage where nothing is missed thanks to the red button, but interspersed amongst the excellent pundits Thorpe, Boardman, Johnson we have to suffer the likes of Smirking Lineker, Irritating Inverdale and Why Aye Man Baker.Matt wrote:7 events I applied for 9 and didn't get one ticket!cvtiger wrote:Been lucky enough to spend last week in London at the games. Picked up sensibly priced tickets for 7 events ( still got 3 to go and am heading back tomorrow), and got along to the road race and the individual persuit as well.
I have nothing but praise for the whole event, well organised, friendly and very good fun. The buzz is there and it's been great to be part of it.
I've loved every minute of the Olympics so far and the coverage provided by the BBC puts every other country to shame, if anyone moans about the license fee this year they're nuts.
what about the idiot from South Milford who was arrested for throwing a beer bottle at the start of the mens 100m final

They are on Channel 4 so I don't think they will get the 24 HD channels on Satellite TV. We shall see what they give us.da_jimbob_7 wrote:Hope the Paralympics gets as much coverage as the Olympics. Looking forward to watching them once they start!!!
