BBC WEG sj coverage

[tigers_eye]

WTF was that? Came home especially to watch what I thought would be the individual final and got poxy end of team showumping from two days ago which I knew the results of. Really annoyed, also think that Joe Public would find the individual final much more interesting than a competition where GB finished so far off the pace. Don't tend to rant but that p!ssed me off.

U not have interactive?
AM watching the individual right now on BBC interactive

 

[tigers_eye]

I don't *stamps feet*

So what's happening?

 

[lizzie_liz]

There is a 3 way JO between Jos, Beezi, and Meridus, the australian girl had a pole when she rode shutterfly i think.

Thanks Lizzie - I have just watched the Individual Final thanks to your tip off! It was fantastic and a well deserved win for Jos I thought!

Don't think many people knew it was on and then BBC wonder why not many of us watch it when its on

Freeview box - £20, worth every penny

 

[lizzie_liz]

Freeview boxes are brilliant, have one in my room but it won't let me have BBC but at least we have sky in the lounge!

 

[tigers_eye]

Mightily confused.... If we were to invest in a freeview box can you get BBCi through that? And say we didn't get a freeview box but got Sky, what would we get then? (I'm not a technophobe or anything...)

 

[dieseldog]

Freeview is a one off payment, no subscription, and you can pick them up in ASDA for about £20. The extra channels you get are BBC3, 4 + BBC kids, ITV2, 3 & 4, ABC1 (quite good), UKTV History, Sky Travel which becomes Sky 3 in the evening, E4, Film 4 and More 4, loads of shopping channels, men and motors, BBC news... I can't remember anymore.

You also get all the interactive press the red button stuff, BBCi, E4 do it.

If you got Sky you would get more channels but you have to pay a monthly subscription, not sure how much depends on what package you go for.

Yeah, it was on interactive. Was really interesting watching them all swapping horses. SUCH a shame for Beezie Madden - I felt she deserved to win. Although that big grey of Jos Lansinks was SO amazing.

Thank goodness for Sky and BBCi - RTE (as usual) didn't show any of the WEG...
