Hey Guys,

I was just wondering if anybody knew whether or not the ToB would be on the tele this year? Or maybe a highlights package like that for the Tour Series?

Cheers
Jim

    There was a 60-minute daily highlights show on ITV4 last year. I assume it'll be the same this year.
  • During the tour i believe they said there would be a highlights package each evening.

    it is going through my neck of the woods this year. will try and watch the riders go past in 4 different places.

    Neither here nor there but was it not 30 minutes? I seem to remember it being over almost as soon as you'd got the titles, adverts and Ned Boulting's sideways-take-piece.

    It probably amounted to 30 minutes once you skipped through the ads and waffle, but according to this it was an hour:

    ...which is how I remember it.

    Yeah it's on ITV4 again, 7-8. Think it was mentioned during the Tour Series coverage, and if not it's been mentioned on other stories about the race.
