Mens doubles has gone to a 5th set. I wonder will BBC2 continue past its 9pm scheduling and continue to show it live. Also its unlikely the womens doubles final will finish in time this evening

It seems rather pointless beginning the 3D coverage at 3.30pm tomorrow - if they're doing 3D they might as well do it properly.

P.S. Is TV Forum really slow for anyone else today?

Depending on what happens at Silverstone, it might not even start that early.

The tennis match starts at 2pm, however.

Until 21:30 according to the EPG.

Ladies' doubles final is still scheduled, but unlikely.

edit: Ladies' doubles is on!

John Inverdale mentioning The Hollow Crown will not be shown tonight on BBC 2 or HD, then later saying it may be on after the tennis.

I'd have thought they'd leave it until next week now, when Part 2 should be shown.

BBC Two now in all sorts of scheduling problems, Hollow Crown was to finish pre Olympics that's now in doubt.

Shows how important it is to get the Shakespeare adaptations in before the Olympics!

The BBC are certainly being inventive with their scheduling this Wimbledon . . . I cannot recall any previous occasion when the tennis has been moved to BBC One to accommodate more prominent programming on BBC Two.

Of course, this also means the news will be delayed on BBC One.

Tennis against the clock again . . . play finishes at 11pm.

Amazed this is isn't going over to the Red Button. Is it in the contract that this has to be shown on BBC One/Two?

It's a final match so I doubt they'd put it just on Red Button

Didn't a Mixed Doubles final go on the Red Button last year or the year before and there were complaints from the AELTC?
