DH is obsessed with this show and watches it each year without fail. The Sky+ is taping every show and quite frankly I'm a bit bored of it. All that straining and huffing and puffing.

Is this something that all males enjoy watching or is DH just a wee bit odd?

I'm female and I love watching it!

Really? What do you like about it?

Does he talk about his feelings, have good dress sense and like musicals? Grin

It's easy to watch, usually from a glamorous place and there's the sport aspect. Men like to watch a sporting event regardless of what it is. People trying to win something is exciting to men.

Oh god, TIggyD you're not far off. Except that he never talks about feelings and hates musicals. Phew!

DH also enjoys this as well as sky +ing strictly every week. I have my suspicions.........

My dh loves it, and watches all the competitions throughout the year, tis on every week in this house. But he is rather obsessed with body building and strength athletics in general. I don't actually mind it, but then my taste in men tends towards the giant-esque. Grin
