Paralympics

[Wedge Head Tiote]

I thought I'd make a paralympic thread seeing as people where asking for one

[Wedge Head Tiote]

To start things off, what event are people most looking forward to? For me it's either the wheelchair rugby/blind football.

buzzing on here like

ch4 arent helping this though. coverage started at 8, had a break at 8.10, 8.20 and 8.30. took for granted all that bbc coverage. i wont be watching that much, maybe just 30mins or an hr a night. i literally had the olympics on from 9am - 12 at night - ipad at work. doubt i will have that on during these, but 5live will have decent coverage so will know what's going on. not too bothered about the games/events, but really pleased they are getting their moment.

Have to say I prefer the rings to the swoops

wheelchair basketball, swimming, athletic events like the 100m or all the events that south african lad is doing. i have a feeling this could end up like a PM chat between us

Yeah, also I don't see how we're going to be allowed to select what event we get to watch on c4, so we'll probably end up watching crappy equestrian

sky channel 450, 451 and 452 are your friends, my friend.

They should do it with disabled horses, not disabled people

I was joking of course

[Paullow]

does anyone know what time this is due to finish, i know its overrunning, but sky tv listings still saying 23.20, bbc are normally quick to put the timings back was overrunning like the closing ceremony. pretty extensive coverage from c4 to be fair. on all day on c4 bar a couple of hours from 3.30-5.30ish where coverage continues on more4 - plus those 3 extra added channels

[Lidl]

I know it's wrong but I spend more time trying to work out what disability the athletes have than actually taking interest in the event...
