Alright lads and lasses, call me lazy, but has anyone seen any details of any 'normal' tv coverage of the world champs? I don't have Sky or cable but have freeview so can get ITV4 etc. Can't see any coverage on there and wondered if anyone else had got some details?

Cheers

    Lower down the page there is a link to a PDF with TV schedules in various countries.
    Aspire not to have more, but to be more.

    Thanks for the information but people posting questions and opinions is the lifeblood of the forum - if every topic could only be covered once what a dull place it would be.

    it's a hard life if you don't weaken.

    The search facility may be many things but great is not one of them...........its dreadful.

    If a poster asks a question thats been asked before whats the big deal ?

    Never understood why folk feel the urge to direct others to the search facility, although not on this occasion it can be sometimes be outright hostile . Particularly in the buying forum.
