does anyone have a link to the BBC's interactive Olympic programme schedule? if it highlights the times and which badminton games will be shown, even better! cheers ...
I Was On The BBC Website last night.. It gives you times for everything including badminton.. Heres the link.. I Think its Beijing time.. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/olympics/badminton/event_schedule/default.stm

I hate you guys lol US doesn't get any coverage of badminton. Now I'm stuck watching gymnastics, how exciting...
damn, mens doubles gold clashes with my own badminton session. will any kind soul be recording some of these matches?
I would love to but dont have a video recorder. It may be on the Main BBC 1 or BBC 2 channel though so may get it on the iplayer. I don't see it being a problem OG Finals will not be hard to come by!
haha, yeah, it's not a problem as such. just that i don't get to watch it live! you can't save anything from bbc iplayer, right?
I Have Freeview And I Can't Get Badminton At 3:00am..Does Anybody Know Anywhere I Can Watch Online???? I Have Sky Downstairs But my mum and dad dont want me downstairs at that time. Please Help!!
all the channel streams are on the net for uk users. I want to know if sentanta subscribers can see the Satelite/Cable streams. dreamzz:not sure about recording on iplayer, I am sure there will be some way if you are clever enough.
I Dont Know How To Get To Them Though.. What Do You Mean About The Setanta Thing?..Will That Even Be Playing Badminton? My Dad Is A Setanta Subscriber And I Was Watching Badminton Yesterday Morning..Not through Setanta Though...
On the BBC website go to the olympics section and all the streams which are available on TV or Interactive or Satelite services can be watched online on the right hand of the screen. The schedules can be found here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sol/shared/bsp/hi/olympics2008/epg/html/epg.stm The Streams can be seen on the RHS of this screen: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/olympics/live_action/default.stm About Setanta If you look at the TV schedule there is schedules for BBC1, BBC2, BBC3 then Freeview 1, Freeview 2 & Freeview 3. This is fine as I have free view. Also availble is Satelite/Cable 1,Satelite/Cable 2, Satelite/Cable 3, Satelite/Cable 4, Satelite/Cable 5. Streams 1-3 are the same as Freeview 1-3. Streams 4&5 are only availble to subscription viewers. Badminton is on the 4/5 satelite streams for the most part. I want to know whether Setanta can receive these Satelite/Cable streams. If you could find out on your set it would be most appreciated.
It's good they have the stream online but they're only showing one court at a time and so far they've missed the best players in favour of showing british players. this morning they've not shown lee chong wei vs. ronald susilo and kenneth vs. lee hyun il, it's so annoying
Some people are just never satisfied!! I partially agree though. The only top class match has been Maria vs Tine. 11.00 on Freeview today maybe some better matches. Wang Chen vs Saina Nehwal on now. Has potential, but not the big names.
they will always show the british players when they have the chance. your best best to watching the most competitive matches will only come at the later stages in the games.
Taufik Vs WCH was live on Freeview today as was Anup Vs Sato & Lin Vs Ng Wei. Taufik/WCH now being replayed on BBC 1!!
There is an hours highlights of the days play at 4-5 and 8-9 on Freeiew stream 5 (Available online) Freeview Stream tomorrow is 3-6am, with the evening session being plaed on Stream 4 (Online or Satelite only)
Looking at the schedules for Tuesday onwards, with the exception of The Evening session on Tuesday (11.30 - 1600 ish) all the remaining coverage is on Freeview. I also assume that Robertson/Emms will get on BBC 1 and they play in that evening session tomorrow. So Basically I think BBC have done a pretty good job with their coverage this year to date!
