Le Tour on French TV

[zebedee]

Long shot I know, but can anyone say what (standard network hopefully) channel shows good tour de france highlights in France and what time they are on?

[smack]

France 2/3 are the broadcast holders.

[zebedee]

excellent, are they bog standard terrestrial channels?

[ewenm]

Yes. The coverage tends to jump between the two during the day. Not sure about highlights but you should be able to find channel listings.

[zebedee]

Just checked their schedules and they only show it live on 2, with a 10 min highlights on 3. No good! I need proper evening highlights. Probably Eurosport only then.

The usual answer would be some sort of proxy so you can watch the ITV highlights on ITV Player.

I find Tunnel bear good for watching the Giro Rosa on Italian TV. Worth checking TB as I can hit the RAI 2 site with TB switched on, get teh stream to work, then turn TB off, this saving me having to upgrade TB from basic.
