cw - what do you want? The Ch4 site hows all their coverage, although called 'live', it's got all their broadcasts stacked up, eg the link I gave a page back is today's 1-3am slot.

I like to keep up to date and see highlights of medals but I can’t watch TV when I’m meant to be working! The BBC feed is good for that, but the snippets they are showing are really short (because I guess they have to buy them from C4). On the 4 website it looks like you have to watch all the coverage and there is no way to dive in for the exciting bits. I guess the roundup programmes would be a good synopsis but that’s after the event.

CW from a fire stick on all all 4 you go into 'live' through the sports section and it's sliced up into segments by time.

Finding the highlights quite hard, too much flashing banners and fancy imagery. Worth the watch though! And well done Maria Lyle, storming

We really liked the BBC olympics evening 90 mins highlight show.

It's a shame that C4 aren't doing something similar. Their 30 mins show seems too rushed and gives the impression that no-one outside of GB ever achieves anything of interest.

At least they have changed their graphics colours from the unreadable blue and red ones following complaints.

I think their highlights is earlier. It’s at 5pm today then the 30 mins gold rush at 7.30. They repeat the highlights after Last Leg I think.
