Can't say I'm a massive fan of the new main set in comparison to the old. Seems bigger but really not a fan of the desk.

2016

And the new outdoor set for 'Today at Wimbledon' that thank goodness returns after the dreadful 'Wimbledon 2Day'

Wimbledon 2Day was 2015. Today at Wimbledon returned last year.

Anyway

How does the main studio at Wimbledon operate? For years now it has looked very nice in BBC Sport London 2012 style (and indeed I think it was the only sport to get a London 2012-esque set, a shame it didn't become the house style for a while), yet this year it has a new look.


Not just 'London 2012-esque' - most of it was the actual London 2012 set with some of the lighting recoloured and Olympic rings removed.

The Today at Wimbledon set is just the generic BBC Sport small desk set isn't it, that would turn up at various lower profile sports with probably Hazel Irvine sat behind it. Indeed it's the same as last year isn't it?

They got a good 5 years use out of the London 2012 set then, one year at the Olympics and 4 years at Wimbledon (I still can't believe it's 5 years since London 2012!)

The days when Britain was optimistic, hopeful and inclusive.

Stand by for possible schedule disruption. Murray match started just after 16:30 on BBC One...

With a bit of luck Murray can wrap this up before Six - otherwise with a Williams match over on BBC Two and Williams one set down things will get interesting!

Unlikely, it's best of 5.

I mean the mens is best of five, womens best of 3.

They've already started shuffling the red button streams anyway with Janowicz v Pouille on RB1 and RB2 at the same time.

Williams v Wang now on RB1.
