Sochi winter olympics

[mickyas]

Does anyone know which free channel or free satellite is showing the best coverage (or any for that matter)?
I'd rather not have to endure the BBC's sporadic coverage of the games (if the last games is anything to go by it will consist of 23 hours of curling and 55 mins of news from afghanistan with 5 mins of highlights). Already noticed today they are showing 10 hours of figure skating :/
Thanks

Personally I will watch on some foreign channels (Should be loads of coverage from the germans on 19E, or try and find some russian IPTV (hoping to get the official SOCHI channels somehow) I quite agree with your statement about BBC. Too many talking heads in there, and only covering some minor sports for endless hours only breaking to feed the viewer with yet another bul**** from some ****hole on the other side of the globe.

Edit: Beebs online coverage looks promising tho:

It does make you wonder why the BBC are there? They have a greater contingent of staff than the entire British Team, so what the hell are they doing whilst over there????obviously not filming the games.!!!!!
