Fan authored articles, polls, news, discussion forums and more. I live in the United Kingdom. Not a sniff or a tour or pro competition anywhere on this fair island.
Television coverage is especially dreadful.
Skating events are broadcast prime time in north America, whereas the BBC usually slots its skating coverage into the 11.30 pm midnight slot, with a reprise the next evening for those of us who have a job to get to. It takes a truly dedicated fan to stay awake to 1 am Wednesday morning to watch the pairs free skate from the European championships. I hear non-Europeans cry, they offer complete coverage of Europeans and Worlds. True, but only of Europeans and Worlds and you need a satellite to receive it. Eurosport did not broadcast a single Grand Prix event this season and planned to limit its coverage to Europeans and Worlds, before relenting and offering highlights of the Four Continents and the Goodwill Games.
