Does anybody know why the TV coverage of the TT has changed so much this year? Am I right in thinking the production company is no longer North One and the new company has had a huge shake up getting rid of the usual faces? Also read a rumour on twitter that the coverage is going to BT Sport as of next year? Can anybody shed any light on the matter? P. S. I know BT is a paid for service but I could imagine they would do a good job of the TT and might even lead to more coverage and more programmes. (I already have BT sport )
Not sure about production company, but fully agree that BT Sport, with its numerous channels, would do a brilliant job as it does with Moto GP. Of course this would disadvantage the public. It is a shame that so many of the good sports telecasts are now televised as a subscription or pay-per-view basis. I also have BT Sport so am biased in welcoming the proposed move.
Correct about North One... https://www.motorcyclenews.com/spor...january/roads-north-one-loses-tt-tv-contract/ Agree, the presenters are a bit..meh, except Cameron Donald. I actually hope it does go to BT and we see a bit of LIVE action.
It has changed but I am still enjoying it. If it does go to BT sport I will have to add it to my sky package as I feel I am missing out on MotoGP and Champions League etc.
Huh? He's got the worst, most unusual Australian accent I have EVER heard - and I've heard many! Better than Simon Crafar though, although he's a New Zealander.
Leave him alone He's got massive balls like the rest of em who ride the roads and he sounds sexy to us wimmin......unlike you Midlanders 'Amy Turtle Crossroads' accents
Weirdly I like his accent, plus he's got a bit of personality about him - the others are so boring especially that dullard Jody, ughh. Err...maybe I'm getting in touch with my feminine side
The new production companies format is crap, it's all over the place! I really enjoyed it before with the old presenters and it was an hour to look forward to each night for the fortnight. Jodie Kidd is beyond awful which is being reflected in the majority of comments in social media, they may as well replace her with a glove puppet it'd be more interesting and cheaper. I hope they get it sorted for next year & it doesn't go to BT as I don't have it
oi us kiwis are nearly the same as you english guys. Except we have bigger tongues think thats why the ladys like us and we sound different
