Here we go- and Isa is a back.

Looks like the weather is good (it's raining up here Grin).

JaneJeffer · 03/07/2023 10:36

Oh no not the cricket woman again. They should have kept Gigi

Raahh · 03/07/2023 10:38

Bingo!

They are already talking about Dick- and 'it being disapointing for the tournament'. Er, no. I'm very glad he won't be there.

No Anne- he is not 'great for the sport'- and how quickly they have glossed over his court case Hmm.

JaneJeffer · 03/07/2023 10:38

I've tuned out already

JaneJeffer · 03/07/2023 10:39

It's blood freezing here and showery

Raahh · 03/07/2023 10:39

Jane in the first few minutes, I can't say she's improved since last year.

I think I'd rather have Carole Kirkwood doing the interviewing. She probably knows more about tennis.

JaneJeffer · 03/07/2023 10:41

She probably does Grin how lucky is she getting the Wimbledon gig every year!

Raahh · 03/07/2023 10:42

I remember the year she interviewed Cilic- he was flossing.

It was the year after he made the final (and lost early).

JaneJeffer · 03/07/2023 10:42

I tuned back in to hear Tim say box office and tennis needs personalities like Dick. Give over FFS. It's embarrassing.

JaneJeffer · 03/07/2023 10:43

I don't remember that Raahh Grin

Raahh · 03/07/2023 10:43

I am not feeling hopeful that anyone will beat Djok. He has a very easy draw.

JaneJeffer · 03/07/2023 10:44

And now Djok

Raahh · 03/07/2023 10:45

Jane it is embarrassing- they are still banging on about a player rapidly approaching 30, who has achieved less than players nearly 10 years younger.

JaneJeffer · 03/07/2023 10:46

Stan the Man will beat him

JaneJeffer · 03/07/2023 10:46

Margaret Court, another gobshite

Raahh · 03/07/2023 10:47

I miss Rafa.

Although it might mean we won't get 'The List'.

JaneJeffer · 03/07/2023 10:53

So there's a Premier 1 channel with Wimbledon on. I presume it belongs to Eurosport?

Raahh · 03/07/2023 10:55

Jane I'm not sure.

Eurosport are currently showing repeats of the French Open.

JaneJeffer · 03/07/2023 11:03

It's the channel between Eurosport and BT Sport for anyone on Sky. 412 here but probably different number in the UK. And hallelujah they are saying Alcaraz

Raahh · 03/07/2023 11:05
Grin If they start saying Alcarath, I will throw things.

Although Claire won't appear until the later broadcast - hopefully someone will have had words since Queen's Grin

Fizzywinegum · 03/07/2023 11:06

I remember Cilic flossing with Carole - I don’t think he was ever the same after that!

It was nice to see Baby Rafa - I miss him as well Sad - I don’t feel quite so excited about Wimbledon this year - I’m going to try and avoid Djok for as long as possible!

For anyone with BBC iplayer they’re showing all of the matches currently in play

Raahh · 03/07/2023 11:08

Fizzy- no, I think it was the flossing that ruined poor Marin's career! (And he's not playing this year Sad).

JaneJeffer · 03/07/2023 11:09

They were at it already Raahh

Just found this. I love you Michael O'Rourke, whoever you are

JaneJeffer · 03/07/2023 11:09

Need to find the other channel now Grin

Raahh · 03/07/2023 11:11

Grin Great news- though I think they have made a mistake ditching the red button. (So much easier than iplayer).
