"whats annoying, however, is i would like to see how the other 2 girls are getting on, but the BBC are all pin upcentric, so only show their favourites.
its very crap."
She is favourite for Gold in the Heptathlon so it's hardly surprising the Beeb are concentrating on her, but in their defence they have inter_iewed the young 19y/o a couple of times, and she looks like a bright prospect for the future. But at this Games it's Jessica's time, so let's enjoy it and wish her all the best. |

yeah, i appreciateshe is the medal chance of the event, but its hardly inspiring when the other girls dont get anywhere near as much airtime.
as a youngun i would be thinking that unles i was great straight away, i wouldnt get anywhere near any coverage.
after all, this is where they market themselves for sponsorship. |

Great inter_iew with kjt on Bbc last night after 200 metres, of course the emphasis is on JE as she is favourite for gold and leading the event.
If you think the coverage is bad, try watching the other countries and their total focus on their own teams.
The beeb is showing every second of every event. Nobody has that kind of coverage |
