Topic starter
 

ITV4 advertised the women's race to be broadcast live from 10AM.
Switched tv on and there's a couple of blokes fishing .
Any idea why no women's cycling ?
Is Shane Sutton perhaps to blame?

French Air traffic Control strike.

(the plane used to bounce the feed has had to be grounded)

It was a bit chilly earlier, maybe the race was cancelled ?

Yes quite!

I'm quite annoyed by this... Beth who works for me has been working up to this for ages, and made sure we all knew where to watch it. I've signed into ITV player this morning, and... Fishing! WTF?!?!

Is Shane Sutton flying the TV relay plane? What a downer.

Too busy making sandwiches, plus they ran out of butter so had to nip down the shops.

Couldn't find a camera wide enough to fit in all the fat arses?

Ah, that explains the lack of live feed on the big screen at Doncaster until they met the local cameras.

It appears they have invited a lifeboat man to the prize giving.

No way! I thought it was a random motorcycle cameraman dressed for the balmy Yorkshire spring weather who looked a bit like a lifeboat man...but it was actually an real lifeboat man! At a prize giving 50miles from the nearest bit of coast.
