5 million watched Beijing, to put it in perspective. Clearly there will be more interest in the home Olympics. I believe it could be a reasonably long programme.

OMG 6/1??? Thats the worst bit of odds compiling i've ever seen.

Should be 1/50.
By:

When: 22 Jul 12 21:05
It beggers belief that they are still 11/8.

The bloke compiling that should not have a job.

I was allowed to have a bit more on at the shorter price. Pity there's no PP within 30 miles of me.

I only saw it when it was 7/4, was allowed 8 quid so didn't even bother.

Link to market. I think under 22 million is likeliest.

BBC One
06:00 - Olympic Breakfast: 1.7m (39.0%)
13:00 - BBC News at One: 2.5m (33.8%)
13:30 - Regional News and Weather: 2.6m (33.8%)
17:00 - London 2012: Countdown to the Olympics: 1.9m (13.5%)
18:00 - BBC News at Six: 5.0m (32.2%)
18:30 - Regional News and Weather: 6.3m (37.1%)
19:00 - Olympics Countdown: 10.1m (44.8%)
21:00 - Olympics 2012: 22.4m (82.5%)
25:00 - BBC News: 1.9m (39.4%)

Absolutely astonishing figures and yet only just going over Paddies bottom line. An awfully researched market but they have my cash this time.

Very stubborn of the brits to sit through 4 hours of it.

Opening ceremony figures hardly surprising.
Peaked at 27M.
Only the loons on DS and punters will have watched BB
By:

When: 28 Jul 12 17:52
I knew the peak would be huge but very surprised the average held up over 4 hours into the morning. I hadn't bargained for the stoic nature of Brits. Trevor Nelson literally sent me to sleep, zzzzz.

What was the original bet?
By:
Cider
When: 28 Jul 12 20:39
sub 22m average @7-4 for me. Opened 6s.

Could easily have covered on the only other possibility @4-1, not my style tho!


Big shift in Gold Medal table market already. I'm on China @6-4, they were always going to have 'come from nowhere' types.

I did misjudge it, there seemed to be a fair amount of indifference to the olympics in the lead up, with the timings I thought it would be lucky to achieve 18 million average.

14M got off their arses to see the torch. Including me. So was always going to be a decent audience, but clearly the PP odds were way out.

Do any firms still have which GB team will win the most golds?
By:

Not that I could see, been looking around for decent specials but not much about.

Ok, cheers cider.
I was going to back the boxing team and they're going very well so far.
