Tour de France on TV?

Hi

Does anyone know if the Tour de France will be on TV this year,and if so which channel? I've been
told it will only be on cable.

Thanks for any info

Paul

 

Duffers has assured Eurosport viewers that ES will be offering live coverage as usual.

Will that be British Eurosport or Eurosport International?....Hope i'm not going to have the same
problems as the Giro. On the same note does anyone know how to get Eurosport International on
Telewest cable?

Definitely ES International, and probably British ES as well, but I can't be certain of the latter
as I have no Sky receiver...

I got a second Sky dish and box from my dad and pointed it at the Astra satellite at 19.2E. You can
get all the German regional channels like MDR, BR, WDR, NDR etc as well as Belgian, Dutch, Italian
etc TV, so it's damn near impossible not to find it! It's all free to air and you don't need a
card. You can get a program here to help you point the dish at the correct spot -

Unfortunately the 3 females in our house want to sit watching flaming Big Brother all day. Anyway,
had a good hour watching an old 1970s Musikladen show on Bayerische Rundfunk last Friday night

I had the misfortune of mistuning my remote control to all-night Big Brother yesterday or, rather,
early this morning. In the interest of getting into the mind of the common man <fanfare>, I watched
the programme for about 20 minutes.

Do people actually watch this crap on a regular basis? If so, why? Personnaly, I just do get it.

Honestly, I do not wish to come across as being "superior" - although, having said that ... -
I'm just terribly confused as to why some enjoy BB as entertainment.

Just one day without any reading material would drive me mad. Madder?

Yet again, as I mentioned or agreed with in another thread, I enjoy programmes such as Monty Python,
Have I got News For You and I'm Sorry, I Haven't A Clue. Horses for courses and other such clichés,
I suppose.

What amazes me is that it's called "reality TV" - how unreal can you get?

Perhaps a second TV set would be a useful addition to your household ;-)
