Sat watching the canoeing and up pops Matt Baker saying it's moving from BBC2 to BBC1. It's at a crucial stage with the GB canoeist in 6th place with 8 to qualify. So flick over to BBC1 and they show the Eventing highlights from earlier. Ok so go onto interactive, locate the canoeing and select waiting for it to load. Missed 2 of the canoeists and GB bloke is out.

Why do they insist on flicking from event to event and moving on regardless of what's happening in the event that they've just covered, in this case to go to Rishi (who knows f all about Eventing) talking some sh1te about an event that's already finished.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Must be hard to co-ordinate everything  , particularly when the commentators / media are desperate for gold .  I dont detect the desperation among ordinary people , most of whom celebrate good performance wherever it comes from .

Would someone have a word in the commentators ear to that effect , its more worthy !

If you had a brain you would be watching the canoeing on the interactive channel knowing the bbc schedule on its main station, its not rocket science.

well I was specifically looking to watch the canoeing sky panel, was just on beeb 2 to see whatever was on. Then they chop it off at a crucial bit so then had to go into hunting mode after Matt Baker said it was on BBC1, when in actual fact they were going to the Eventing highlights.

If you are a Judo fan for instance, its heaven, now you can see all the action, fantastic.

well I like seeing a mixture of the events hence being on beeb 2 but I think as soon as I find one I want to watch completely I think I need to hot-trot it over to the interactive. Felt sorry for the judo guy earlier, all that hard work gone in a split second Sad

That's judo. If only we had a Teddy Riner.
