Well done Big Foe. Stef looks very flat.

Fizzywinegum · 28/06/2021 17:06

Wow well done Tiafoe! Poor Stef Sad

JaneJeffer · 28/06/2021 17:06

A lot of teenagers will be crying right now.

JaneJeffer · 28/06/2021 17:08

He looks like me trying to get ready to leave Grin

Fizzywinegum · 28/06/2021 17:09

AC’s daughters won’t be happy!

I’m not sure about these on court interviews after every match - Wimbledon is getting too modern for my liking!

JaneJeffer · 28/06/2021 17:13

I thought it was just for the first centre court match but seems to be a thing now.

Fizzywinegum · 28/06/2021 17:19

I know Jane - even Djok seemed a bit surprised by it

I’m feeling tired already and it’s only the first day - might need a little snooze before Andy Murray

Tiafoe played well, congrats to him. Stef looked a bit flat, but he has had a few rough weeks after a family death. Hope he is off home to Greece for some rest and sunshine.

JaneJeffer · 28/06/2021 18:03

John!

Andrew giving geography lessons.

I was just thinking that Jane Grin

Mac is mangling names already - I’m sure he does it on purpose!

DS2 has just informed me that I’ve been watching tennis all day! (I would have been watching for longer if it hadn’t been for the rain!)

PrivateSpidey · 28/06/2021 18:37

I'm just watching Millman v RBA - it's really good. RBA is up two sets to one but it's 5-4 to Milkman in the fourth. I'm just going to see how this goes then I'll pop over to Centre Grin

Glad to hear Mac is there!

Fizzywinegum · 28/06/2021 19:03

It sounds like a good match Spidey - there are too many to keep track of!

I knew that John could be relied on to bring up the domestic abuse allegations against Basilasvilli - AC sounded a bit worried!

Eastenders fans are going to be cross! I don’t really see the point of putting it on BBC1 - if people want to watch it surely they’ll find it on BBC2?

kazzaD66 · 28/06/2021 19:12

And I'm back! Not planning on moving from the tv for the rest of the evening now Grin

Yay, Mac is back Smile
Unfortunately, so is the butterfly fancier Angry

You come home to watch the tennis you recorded on BBC2 to find you are watching Eastenders and not the rest of the match....

Raahh · 28/06/2021 19:22

I gave up and fell asleep earlier.

I feel sorry for Stef- he has had a tough few weeks. He didn't get any preparation for Wimbledon- and it was probably the last thing on his mind for a bit. He has many years ahead of him (hopefully). I do like Big Foe though- and when I saw the draw thought it would be tricky. He's been playing well lately.

I'm glad Swiatek got through her match - Hseih can be dangerous.

I feel your pain or equally annoying is recording Eastenders thinking in BBC1 and finding out a tennis match was recorded instead

I really don't get this swapping channel thing. Everyone has BBC1 & BBC2. Ok it's Andy Murray but I'm sure he wouldn't mind being on BBC2

ILoveYou3000 · 28/06/2021 20:03

Is it me or does Murray look like a totally different player to what he did at Queens? Some of these shots are amazing.

kazzaD66 · 28/06/2021 20:04

It is bollocks. People aren't going to stop watching tennis because it's 'only' on BBC2.

Having said that, Andy is now on fire and surely can't lose from here Confused
He is really pumped. It's as though he's playing Davis Cup or a Grand Slam final. I just think he's sooo happy to be there again.

Liam Broady is 2 sets to love up, so fingers crossed for him to come through.

Time to revive this

I don't get all the channel changing. ITV do it with the football too. It's just annoying.

kazzaD66 · 28/06/2021 20:09

Bugger!
Hoping for a bagel.

kazzaD66 · 28/06/2021 20:17

Now just hoping Andy doesn't lose the set!
