On a side note, it's a shame none on the Paralympians are getting much of a look in.
Are you watching the same show? Ellie Simmonds, Sarah Storey, David Weir, Sophie Christensen, Martine Wright, the young lad Josef...they're getting more airtime than they've ever had in a SPOTY before.
For the team in an individual sport or sporting discipline that has achieved the most notable performance in the calendar year to date. The team should have significant UK interest or involvement.
For the avoidance of doubt this criteria excludes Team GB/Paralympics GB but includes the likes of British Cycling, Rowing Coxless Four and the European Ryder Cup team.
The expert panel responsible for choosing the shortlist for the main Sports Personality of the Year award will decide the 1st, 2nd and 3rd places for the Team of the Year award based on reaching a consensus view. If a consensus view cannot be reached on the top three, then the Panel will be asked to vote. In the event of a tied vote, the Chairperson's decision will be binding.
The winner will be announced during the Sports Personality of the Year show, with details on the BBC website.
there are so many obvious drugs cheat on this show, it lacks any credibility.
putting "wiggo" aside, athletics reeks of drugs. usain bolt is running over 2 tenths of a second quicker than johnson was when he was doped up to the eyeballs, yet we are supposed to believe he's "clean"
First year I have watched all of this, and it is so slow and dragged out. Can't believe it's actually running over, there's been so much filler that could have been cut.

KM has already had 30 years of "resting":D:D
And flogging sandwiches.
Storey has won 22 paralympic medals equal to Michael Phelps considered to be the greatest Olympian of all times.
thats no way to talk about your female relations
Great Googling, but she's a PARALYMPIAN, not an OLYMPIAN.
