Yes - it certainly makes a change that the BBC have done something
right. :)

Its not live on Eurosport.
It has "LIVE" written on the screen but it isn't!

Try looking at a game on Eurosport and then watch the same game on BBCi

Yes. I checked earlier today and it was identical to the live match on BBCi

However, I did notice the other day that it was about 2 frames behind earlier in the week.

It makes so much difference when you watch a sporting event live compared to watching edited
highlights.

Well done BBC. This is what interactive digital TV is all about. Keep up the good example to
other TV producers..

With all this interactive TV nonsense. This is the only useful feature along
with Wimbledon where again you get to choose which match to watch.

BTW I watch neither but do appreciate that it is nice for those who enjoy these
sports.
