The British Film and Television Awards nearly gave a prize to the TV coverage of this year's Boat Race. Was just wondering what I missed, by being out marching, that was so good? Andrew |

It's not what you missed; it's what they missed: the most important few seconds of the entire race, as far as I can see. My post at http://groups.google.co.uk/group/rec.sport.rowing/msg/3a0ee6c521f050e9 describes the problem as I saw it. -- Henry Law Manchester, England |

I've looked at a series of photos taken by one of the photographers in the launches following the race. At the point where Oxford pulled away, as far as I can see, there was nothing that caused Cambridge a problem - it really does look as if Oxford simply powered away, so there was nothing out of the ordinary for the TV cameras to see.

So if they hadn't missed a few seconds they should have won? |
