Big medal for the opening ceremony, it was fantastic. Also really good commentary unlike the awful drivel we got from bbc. So a big thank you to C4
I fully agree with the sentiment about the epg and overrun though. Luckily I was watching live by then, having caught up with live broadcast so could rewind live and record the remaining 63 minutes at the end.
What’s the saying about spoiling a ship for ha’penny’s worth of tar. It’s a crying shame that a quality broadcaster such as C4 doesn’t view the epg / overrun-status as important. I half expect it from C5, but C4 can and should do better.
Nevertheless, a brilliant opening ceremony and excellent coverage
