Eurosport just kicked off air abruptly into repeated coverage. The commentator said the stadium officials were going to cut the power to the media area and then, they did.

Even though the Sky EPG doesn't show it, it looks like they are back to the original schedule.

Have they broadcast RSC because of the breakdown or the weather?

Is that a trick question, the weather caused the breakdown, they are one and the same.

I wonder what they will put out after Ready Steady Cook - perhaps they will be able to return to Helsinki (or should I say Breakdown Slides!).

Doesn't look like it will unless the feed returns now. On the Live Feed you can see it's still off.

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.

That announcer always sounds like that.

I liked the way he didn't seem to know what was coming next so after a pause said it was 'a little something extra' or similar!
