Wimbledon 2003 Coverage

We have just placed an article on our homepage concerning Wimbledon 2003 coverage.

Here are some screenshots of the service available to Bromley platform digital TV customers, and we would like to invite everyone to comment if they would like to.

I was going to say how impressive they looked, but I've just noticed something.

Ex-CWC remotes don't have a 'Select' button, they have 'OK'.

Are you sure these aren't just screenshots from last year's Sky service?

I find that the interactive tends to distract me from the actual programme,when it works.
