Watching the games this morning and during lunchtime, I was wondering why the BBC deem it necessary to have 3 "Experts" giving their views on the athletics, as well as the presenter ? They manage with only one "Expert" and a presenter for the swimming - however, this does make a total of 6 people that the BBC are paying out of our licence fee monies !! Any comments ?

The BBC is renowned for sending far too many experts and presenters. Everyone is keen to go on the jolly! Aren't you glad that we're paying for it.

What pi55es me off is the Beeb covers the games almost all day long for those fortunate to be able to watch them, then from 7.00-8.00pm on BBC2 they broadcast The Games Today. What we then actually get is about 15 minutes of action, if we're lucky, and 45 minutes of drivel from has been athletes. Why do we have to have Michael Johnson's opinion on everything?

I really don't know why we have to have Michael Johnson - all he seems to do is criticise British Athletes !
