Great, thanks Kev, missed it today, will the final be shown live do you know?

I watched the Heat and Semi Final through the BBC website. I guess it will be on the TV, somewhere. If its not on one of the 1 or 2, I expect it will be on the Red Button Channels.

Sete has also died his hair blond, so he is easy to pick out on the Lanes!!

If you are in the UK and watching freeview the channels with all the coverage are numbers 602 to 608, these dont start until about 13:00 hours UK time.
Far better than BBC1 coverage as that keeps switching between events.
The velodrome cycling had full coverage on 606 whereas BBC1 kept switching to other stuff half way through races sometimes

If you dont have 602 to 608 then retune your TV or freeview box.
This is correct for Yorkshire, might be different numbers for different areas of UK.

Freeview 606 (here in Yorkshire) is the canoeing right now.

at work so cant watch it on TV, have found IB3 live stream on the web, hopefully they will show it, they have a reporter in PP at the yacht club, they have a big screen showing it
