F1 qualifying this saturday.

[mically]

The beeb have done it once again!
Thankfully, after their last poor attempt at communicating vital information.......... I think ahead :-)


F1 qualifying this Saturday is on BBC2 - not BBC1.
Sky+ hasn't recognised this, so it won't record unless you manually select it.

I appreciate the 22-poofs chasing a bag of wind for 90-minutes (with a tea break inbetween,) takes priority - but they could "at least" tell peeps this prior to the green light!

[forsure]

V+ also goes for BBC1.

Well spotted, Thanks!

Thanks for the heads up. I have set the recording manually

It not as if it clashes with an England match. Come on beeb get your priorities sorted put the footie on bbc2

To be fair the World Cup, whether you want to watch it or not, is the second largest sports event in the world, I think that probably warrants it being on the main channel.

Thank you for that ! I know to look out for it now and if it needs to be recorded I won't mess it up.

Someone at work was talking about what a great weekend of sport it was. I agreed - Le Mans, Grand Prix and tennis. He was dumbfounded that I didn't know the football was starting this weekend as well.

I take it the world cup starts this weekend!!?!?!

1st year in 6 years i wont be heading to Le Mans so glad you pointed out the Beebs latest cock up!

Why cant they just get the Sky + to pick it up, other tv shows seem to manage it!

July 11th is going to be possibly the best ever day of sport, with British GP, Wimbledon Mens final and then World Cup final. Love world cup for the constant stream of football but going to love it even more with these great events surrounding it.

I think you will find that Wimbledon Mens final is a week earlier - July 4th

Sky+ has never worked if a show changes channels.

Least the system has been improved over the years so that season link works over more than 7 days.
