  1. I saw le TdF on analogue satellite last year. 'German'
    eurosport with live English commentary.

    Before I try and find the old dish /box, is this still an
    option for this year?

    TIA

    Eurosport International is still broadcasting most of their
    live sport on analogue Astra with English commentary. You
    might have to return your audio channel. I'm expecting
    David Duffield to be waffling on about cheese and wine and
    cats as usual when le Tour is on (though I'm not 100%
    sure). However, the evening highlight programmes might be
    in German only.

    Correction: RETUNE your audio channel ....as they may have
    switched them around since you last used your receiver.

    AFAIK, Duffers is in the studio this year with Mike Smith
    on the road.

  5. Thanks Pete, I'll go find the dish/etc. What angle am I
    aiming for 28.2 E ?

    I dragged ours out last year for the TDF and forgot to shove
    it back into the shed/garage/attic afterward so there's a
    job saved this year. Mind you I've long applied that method
    to my garage workbench and my daughter to her bedroom ;-)

    Yup, according to an article in the Official TDF Guide,
    complete with yellow waistcoat.
