I think Gemmell also did the 7.30 start on Saturday morning for NZ v Aus which seems incredibly harsh considering the time he would have gotten away from Wembley on the friday.

Phillip Studd (along with Joe Johnson) was doing the Opening day coverage of the International Championships that's on in Chengdu for Eurosport 2 this morning. Has he worked for them before?

Phil Studd does a lot for BE yes, he seems to be on more than Mike Smith at the moment. |

Nice to hear about Dan Dawson and Phillip Studd working on the online and television broadcasts of darts and snooker respectively, both of them are strong voices on their respective sports for the radio stations they report on them for, so it's good to hear they've had the chance to progress to a visual medium.

Interesting that Premier Sports are basically using the BBC Rugby League pundits to cover the matches during the World Cup. Brian Noble, Robbie Paul and Jon Wilkin at the PNG/France and NZ/Samoa game today.

Actually that is their second visit of the day, earlier on it was Dave Hendon and Mike Hallett.

This next question is open to anyone:- Digiguide schedules for early November shows neither ESPN nor BT Sport showing France v New Zealand in the upcoming Autumn Rugby union internationals on November 9th. Does anyone know if it is them that'll be showing it? |

Sunday 27th October - Channel 4 and More4
American Football Live at Wembley: San Francisco 49ers v Jacksonville Jaguars Colin Murray presenting from Wembley Stadium alongside Mike Carlson and Fred Taylor Commentators: Chris Myers and Tim Ryan (as Fox) Pitchside reporters: Jennifer Hale (as Fox) and Nat Coombs Coverage is being split between the two channels with Channel 4 broadcasting the game between 4.30-8pm before it shifts over to More4, whose coverage is set to air between 7.55-8.30pm. The American Football Show host Vernon Kay joined Colin and Mike in the studio prior to the game and I'm sure he won't be their only studio guest as their coverage continues. They are also dropping in highlights from the NFL RedZone channel to their studio exerts during the breaks in play, as they do on their Sunday Night Football coverage. |
