WEG X-Country on TV - numpty's guide please!

[punk]

I see that the X-C is to be shown on the BBC Red Button on Saturday.

However, it also says that it is 'not available on Freeview'.

Does this mean that if I only have a Freeview box for viewing digital TV that I won't be able to watch it? Or can I tune in on a programme number - ie 301 or 302?

Or will I have to subscribe to FEI TV???

Confused.......

(Told you I was a numpty!!)

If you have Sky when you hit the red button there is about 4/5 choices of what sport to watch etc. When I had freeview I think there was only one or two choices so i'm guessing it means it wont be one of the freeview options unfortunately!

2pm Saturday afternoon

********ing freeview


what about free sat? we have that too?

 

[suzysparkle]

If you have it there's almost 5hrs of XC on Eurosport (and Eurosport HD) on Saturday at 4pm, and over 3hrs of SJ coverage on the Sunday. Again on Eurosport and Eurosport HD. Full marks to Eurosport for this, epsecially showing it in HD.

Given that you can only get the red button on Freeview/FreeSat (and Sky obviously) methinks they've just worded it wrong Hope so anyway!

Don't panic! It's online too - you can watch the live footage on the BBC website.
