Had to switch off Eurosport today due to the inane commentary/ramblings, not to mention the adverts breaks taking place every two minutes. ITV4 was much more enjoyable!

Cake...

Eurosport for me as well, much better than ITV4 and it also means I can watch it via Sky Go on the iMac while I'm painting the staircase

Norwegian Eurosport is 'kin' annoying. The commentaters don't really give a toss about what's happening, as long as EDB and the other Norwegian cyclists are featuring.

I don't mind patriotism, but jingoism is not a trait I admire in others.

Record and watch later, meaning you can FF the adverts?

 

[Rezillo]

I miss David Harmon's commentary and the banter he keeps going during the quieter moments. Hope he recovers soon.

Gave up on Eurosport a few years ago for the tour. Too many adverts.

I love Phil Ligget so ITV for me

7.00 pm 1-hour highlights is easier - seems as though they still manage the same number of ad breaks tho?!

 

[TonyEnjoyD]

Do you not get funny looks from people who see you gesticulating at the TV like that?!

Aaah F Fwd - I get it now.

Phil Ligget's commentary on ITV 4 was wonderful - sort of "It's Peter Sagan, Sagan surges ahead, Sagan makes his trip to Corsica pay off, Sagan sprints away, I've creamed my pants, Sagan makes up for the error yesterday, Sagan Wins!!!!l"

Quiet voice of Paul Sherwin in background - "I think that was too close to call"

Chris Boardman is amazing as a cycle pundit I feel.

 

[Dan J B]

The Eurosport lead commentator got my goat today when he started moaning about having to get the ferry from Corsica to Nice and that his hotel room would not be ready when he got there! Tough life for some.

That monotone Irish guy rambles a load of $h1te & only flick to Euro Sport HD when ITV 4 takes a break.

That would be Sean Kelly - I quite like him as at least he knows what he is talking about
