Do people really sit and video their own TVs? 😐

apparently so, cheaper than running the tv through a pc and using a capture card i imagine.

I video my own videos. Saves having to rewind the tape.

🙂 – fresh air, breath of

boy can’t put a foot wrong. not shrugging off his medals, clearly very pleased and proud. but equally grounded and respectful of ‘normal’ people.

LEGEND.

And unlike Cav can string a sentence together.

swoon 😛 … love that man and I want to have his babies. better keep it quiet from the wife though!

Wiggo…what a nice guy, makes you proud to be British!

Cav was a bit uncomfortable on the track (tv) yesterday, a great rider but not a natural commentator, but not as bad as some of the other commentators! 😉

Has anyone read Wiggins book?

He was quoting so it doesn’t count (apart from the “arsehole” bit)

I think I’m getting a bit of a man crush on Wiggo!

can’t help but think he’s hoping that his life won’t change rather than stating that it won’t.

I think I’m getting a bit of a man crush on Wiggo!

yeah, I want to be his friend a little too much

Does this make him an honourary member of the Sweary Northerners?

Shame he gave a free plug to Tesco…

If he wasn’t about to become Sir Wiggo as a result of his results, then I can only hope that the Queen watched that and sits there nodding, and making it so as a result of that speech…

Totally grounded bloke. We need more like him.

You have to get past me first, bitch.

Ha Ha.. Excellent. what a rad bloke. 🙂

Legend!

Sadly, I predict he will become fodder for misquoting hacks. They will provoke him.

His earnest manner is laudable, but he is in danger of becoming Cantona..

Hoping someone is guiding or protecting him a little. He plays it cool, but must all be new in many ways..

is in danger of becoming Cantona

no bad thing

If he swears often enough then he might get of the celebrity merry-go-round he so despises! Brilliant tactics.

Top lad.

I’m not, but if I was, I would.

well done for squeezing in ‘arsehole’ too!

if theres a sweep going on in the olympic village for the most swears in a tv interview, wiggo must be in gold medal spot! 😀

he said “Jock”…. surely the STW heroes should be up in arms about this… not applauding him!

he comes across as a top bloke. (if a little rascist).

“I’m not, but if I was, I would.”

Wouldn’t you be worried he’d snap?

no bad thing

You need to see latest of cantona stuff then…

he said “Jock”…. surely the STW heroes should be up in arms about this… not applauding him!

Never been prouder to be a Jock!

“I’m not, but if I was, I would.”

Wouldn’t you be worried he’d snap?

I just assume I’d be the queen in the relationship.

Just a normal bloke who is an extraordinary cyclist

And fully agree with his comments on our celebrity culture

love it, what a realist, hats off.

Good on him.

I couldn’t agree more with him!

Great to see a normal bloke talking straight to a twisted media obsessed world.

The ‘Jock’ Hoy has form with arseholes as well.

“Chris Hoy thinks that the day Chris Hoy refers to Chris Hoy in the third person is the day Chris Hoy disappears up his own arse.”

Hoy

Brilliant

Good on you Mr Wiggins, nice to see a sportman with a good view of what reality is and how luck they are to do what they do and to put it all into perspective.

“****##g inspirational”

I like his honest opinions.

Watching him win the TDF and win the TT has really motivated me to get out on the bike and haul on the running gear again.

From a proud “Jock”.

So not much chance of seeing him on Dancing on Ice or Celeb Big Brother then? :p I’d donate to a fund to see him on the latter giving the others a dose of reality…

Dint see this interview. Glad you recorded that off your tv Phil. Top man 🙂

he looks like he has succumbed to the expensive watch merrygoround…

Could be a ‘homage’ 🙂

… Although I suspect watch manufacturers would be queueing up to get their product on his wrist.

Yes, he’s class but he may lose his ‘sir’ and ‘SPOTY 2012’ if he carries on, doubt he cares though!
