hi. I'm a huge wimbledon fan as well. You do get live coverage, but obviously late evening or early morning, and also highlights in the evening as well. play usually starts at about 11.00 am in London, so therefore about 8.00 or 9.00 pm here.

just don't expect the same level of coverage that the beeb (with digital channels) provide, and of course expect priority coverage for any Australian. I remember last yr that even in the sports news it covered just a few results, so end up going on line to find out for eg how Murray was progressing - is he playing this year or is he injured?

or don't expect any at all, what with the English weather! ...

Still, we do have re-runs of 'wife swap' ... which is close.

Hi, I'm watching it on telly live here in London .
It's raining and Tim Henman is wobbling.
Just Kidding Its actually cleared up for a few hours and Tim is wobbling against whats his face.
Tim won first set 6-3. The other guy won second 6-1.
Tim up 4-3 in third but I think the other guy has sized him up.

that's a shame.

I was very surprised when I turned on TV this morning (son wanted feeding at 5.30am) to see they were showing Henman. But they had to stop showing it to start the brekky program at 6am, not as good as 'wife swap' though
