Dear BBC

Replacing the lovely Sue Perkins and cheeky Giles Coren with two sweaty blokes knocking a fuzzy yellow ball around is Not Acceptable.

Dammit, we want our Sue back.

please

love and snogs

They so did not. They apologised and said we were getting her back next week instead. Boo.

Hmmm. As far as I can tell, there's no net loss in entertainment value: Sue Perkins off the screen, minus point; Giles Coren off the screen, plus point.

Aw, it's only once a year. And that match was awesome. Boring- but awesome.

There's not a huge amount on tv that I deliberately make the time to watch, but Supersizers is one of those programmes.

The tennis was all very good, and well done Murray and all that. But I can't help feeling that adding the roof and floodlighting meant that they could just carry on playing forever, whereas in previous years, or indeed for other matches on other courts, bad light would have stopped play, the players would have had a rest and be refreshed for the match today.

Oh I totally agree with this. Giles Coren makes me want to start fires and burn things.

Ah, 'tis a point of considerable size though. It's just that it's balanced by the other...

Yep, and if his sister was in close proximity, that would result in many bonus points.

Might only be once a year but Wimbledon is the longest 2 weeks of the year.
An argument for summer hibernation IMHO
