Why are Channel 4 showing the Paralympics with adverts when the best broadcaster in the world, BBC, are not?
The Paralympics must be withdrawn immediately and coverage given to the BBC. We should not be subjected to advert breaks every 10-15 minutes which ruin the spectable of these incredible athletes achieving their dream despite incredible odds. The BBC did a fantastic job of the Olympic Games but by allowing Channel 4 to show the coverage, we are showing that this is a second class event being shown by a second class broadcaster who are making money out of it.
