Murray Walker will be doing live commentary for both the qualifying and the actual race this weekend via BBC Radio Live 5. So switch on the box and turn off 'The Cock' and let's remind ourselves why we still love Murray and why 'The Cock' really should be given his P45 ASAP!!

BBC Radio Live 5 can be found on 909 or 693AM (shame it's not FM though).

He's also doing a show on Friday and a phone in on Saturday I think for a Q & A. I feel like ringing up and asking him why ITV still use 'The Cock' ... imagine the answer hehe

Don't forget Radio 5 is on Digital Freeview/Satellite/Cable so you could always have the TV tuned to ITV and route the Digibox/VCR etc through to the Hi-Fi...

Great idea! I just got SKY+ so havnt been able to use the digi box as a radio on it's own before now. I'll give that a try. beer

Can you listen to a radio channel listed on Sky+ via the hi-fi, but still watch the ITV feed via Sky+ box?

Problem is, you really need to listen to both on Analogue or both on Digital, other wise you'll get a weird delay.

No. I have a terestrial digi box and a Sky+ box now, so will tune the terstrial box into Radio 5 live and select that as the audio input for my audio system, then use the Sky+ box for the pictures.
