Is there supposed to be a double space before 'break' or is it me?

They've now given up altogether now, Trails being shown now.

Now they've given up on the pictures of Helsinki and gone to rolling adverts

Thats rain dear. Although the anno sounded almost drunk to me... "Weaalll the weathar is causing us a freau problems at the moment" Over pronouncing which sounded rather odd.

Trails now.

Looks like they've had enough of problems, and have now replaced the Athletics with Ready Steady Cook.

We had panoramic views of the city for a few minutes there. Lots of thunder and lightning. Just wondering what feed that might have been.

Sound then disapeared, we had a few trailers which cut out half way through and now, we're getting "a little something extra" in the form of Ready Steady Cook. Oddly, Eurosport is still on air broadcasting some quite magnificent shots of the lightning.

Sky News obviously don't know it's raining in Helsinki. Sport bulletin just referred to the fact that the 200m heats were underway "as we speak". News does travel fast nowadays.

edit: they have now acknowledged the rain on Sky
