dukiedesmo 3 Posted May 8, 2004 Any one know if and when the SGP highlights will be shown on Channel 4 as I can't find any mention in the TV listings or the web site? Hope they go back to a lunchtime slot again. Cheers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gemini 4,894 Posted May 10, 2004 Anyone watch this? I was really disappointed Julia Bradbury wasn't doing the interviews etc. as she had a good rapport with the riders last season and is a lot better than Sophie Blake (?) in my opinion. I always used to keep the Channel 4 G.P programmes because they were different to the normal Sky coverage, but now it's just run-of-the-mill highlights condensed into an hour. Okay if you don't have Sky but now not worth bothering with if you do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gemini 4,894 Posted May 11, 2004 I wasn't that daft to get up for 7am on a Sunday, even to watch Speedway. I have to get up at the unearthly time of 6.30am during the week so I like to have a bit of a lie-in at the weekend. Yes, I taped it but you're right - it was all rather boring.

Undercover Elephant 50 Posted May 15, 2004 (edited) Just my opinion here but why would Sky Sports not use Julia Bradbury for the Elite League. She is by far the most professional in her presentation in interviews with riders and seemed to strike up a very good rapour with most riders. No disrespect to Sophie Blake but what does she really know about Speedway apart from looking glamorous!! Have you noticed her questions to riders every week are all the same. I suppose the only good thing is tha she's a lot better that Jane Amoreibi!! It's a shame that Channel 4 has not continued with their product from the last couple of seasons. I quite enjoyed some of their footage which you didn't see on Sky. Come on Sky, bring on board Julia Bradbury for the GP'S.
