Televised Welsh Open

[Simon Whitehead]

Hi guys does anybody know if this match will be televised on the bbc next week? I really hope it is as I have really enjoyed playing and watching snooker!

[DeanH]

BBC2 Wales has a pretty good schedule lined up.

[Simon Whitehead]

grrr im in england though

[DeanH]

So am I.
Sky 991, and I am sure on other satellite suppliers as well.
I noticed last year that the Red Button worked as well.
Anyone know about Freeview?
Eurosport are supposed to be showing some as well.
Simon, by the way, where is A, A?

[Neil Taperell]

Never knew that Dean .....i will check my virgin media tonight . Is there more coverage on BBC Wales than Eurosport ?

P.S You might want to make that call towards the end of this week .

[DeanH]

It is very similar to their usual format but without Hazel, and usually Welsh commentators, refs, etc.
I wonder if Dominic Dale will get another stint as commentator once he is knocked out, not that I want him knocked out you understand.
And the Red button shows the other match that is not on TV as well.
I am sure Eurosport will do their usual as well, cutting over to figure skating just before the last black on a respot black 7-7 score line
It looks like you only get BBC2 Wales as Freeview if you are in the region (like the old analogue days) can anyone in Wales confirm this?
Simon, I am sure it will be streamed on Sportlemon.tv and others.

P.S. Neil - I have it scheduled in my phone

Do we know if it will be available to stream online?

[DeanH]

Dominic is scheduled to commentate (http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01c9dlb) and is also scheduled to do a Qualifier round (http://www.worldsnooker.com/staticFi...~170420,00.pdf at the bottom of the page).

139sroberts: I am sure it will on sportlemon.tv and others. Closer to the time will bear fruit I am sure

Sorry to hijack guy;s but anyone know the draw/schedule of play/times etc?

Anyone got any ideas what day.session ron, judd will be playing?


Cheers

[DeanH]

Here is the draw (click on the link) http://www.worldsnooker.com/page/Wel...581418,00.html
no times though, but the BBC2 Wales is scheduled to start at 13:30 on the 13th, so probably the match will start at 13:00 (BBC usually does a slight delay )
I also notice that Ryan Day has to do a qualifier as well as Dale.

Sorry about that, if yo go to page 2 of the linked PDF there are the times.

Hi Cally

From the page 2 of the PDF, Judd and Ryan are schedule on th 13th and ROS on 15th, not sure which sessions though, my guess is that Judd and ROS will be 13:00, Ryan and Dom the 11:00.
