I think that is fair enough.

We should be supporting young British sportspeople more.

The match could have been on BBC1 all night - the last bit after EastEnders isnt too much to ask.

Well it is a bloody cracking match. He has come back from 2 sets to love and 5-3 down to 2 sets all. Watch and enjoy!

Will only be about 20 mins. Play will either finish or be stopped because of bad light.

And what if I was taping it ? And missed the last half hour because The BBC think that sport is more important than anything else.

Murray is overrated. He is good, he'll probably do well later in his life, but people brag on about him too much. And Gasquet deserves more respect, because recently, Murray has been earning points by default.

If you take context into account, the tennis deserves to be on BBC1 right now.

It's a shame for people who are recording it. But these things happen.

Well Hallelujah - we should be grateful to the dark since we can't rely on the bbc to consider anyone who doesn't like sport. Despite paying the same bloody licence money year in and year bloody out.

It'll be down to ratings - I reckon more people will want to watch the tennis, so they could well be scheduling to please the majority.
