I know the TT is covered in Biker Banter but if you are into racing this is a must watch it is brutal, mesmerising and just plain bonkers. The riders are full on nuts but with big brave steel balls.
Even Mark Webber knows it as he is over there to watch.
ITV4 are doing good highlighted coverage as listed below through the pistonheads link.
This is a great escape from all the Jubilee coverage.

Yeah Ross Parker is right it is amazing a tennis event in France where Andy Murray is probably going to come 4th has full on live coverage instead of a UK event where British men are going to do most of the winning.
Don't get me wrong the ITV4 coverage is very good but it is highlights 4 to 5 hours after it has all happened.
I enjoy Wimbledon but I bet the viewer figures for the French tennis will be rock bottom. I can not imagine a documentary movie about tennis ever getting the accolades or viewing figures that "TT3D closer to the edge" achieved.
I can not imagine your regular football fan tuning into the tennis whereas they would probably watch the TT down the pub.
