Yes, Den, there's a lot of video clips, but there are also some really good features which accompany live broadcasts.

I first remember multiple live streams appearing on the BBC red button a few years ago with their Wimbledon coverage-only a week to wait-who's to say we won't have a nice little surprise waiting?
l do see the points you are making Andy but there is a lot of people out there who like the detailed text articles and up to date information in which we had on the old BBC home page and at the moment apart from the news app they are missing from the sports app and also this is not a criticism of Virgin as this fault wholly lies at the feet of the BBC.
