The Olympics

Awesome horsemanship. Amazing horses. I have great respect for the power of horses and feel far more comfortable when they are the other side of the stable door!

Ally, BBC2 shows a re-run of all the previous night events at 9-15am. This includes the athletics. You can make a cuppa during the less interesting sports. BBC1 is showing the day time athletics during the afternoons. It's on right now.

Thank you bluetit
 
Still second in the table!

Team GB are surpassing all expectations!
 
In the UK at least ten channels across all sports, 24/7.
Blanket coverage and spoilt for choice!

Yes, I tried to go to the weblink and when yuo click on the videos, they don't say that you are not allowed the content, only that you can't connect right now

In America we are only allowed to see certain parts of the Olympics in which the US are finalists or expected to win a medal

That's what used to happen in the old USSR so the general population always believed they ruled the world. It was all political. Russians won everything.
 
It's the BBC that covers the Olympics!
As its payed for by license fee by every household along with government money.
It is not beholden to private companies.
No adverts and no missing the events that you enjoy!
 
I watched the triathlon today. They swam 1500m in the ocean in 18 minutes! That's 60 lengths in my local pool? It takes me 18 minutes to tie my hair in a bun and find 20p for the locker :oops:

I watched the whole thing too. Amazing :)
 
Did anyone else stay up to watch Bolt in the 200m? Brilliant. Just the relay left for him for the triple-triple.

No pressure on the relay team >>> :nailbiting::nailbiting::nailbiting::D

It's far easier to go to bed, then watch the BBC2 re-run from 9-15 in the morning, providing you stay away from any news items elsewhere! That's what I have been doing, and quite successfully.
