Back to the future with some of the BBC Ryder Cup graphics (who said there's a rebrand with more Reith coming?)

The BBC using the European Tour world feed graphics for their coverage. NBC/Golf Channel graphics do appear on split screens like on Sky's coverage. Eilidh Barbour presenting from the secondary green screen studio and Rishi Persad reporting on-site.

Some free live coverage from Sky on Youtube today.

The BUG on Sky's PL Coverage tonight on the UHD Feed doesn't have the Premier League unfinished box dropdown tonight, personally think it looks much better, that unfinished Box hasn't stopped getting on my nerves since it was launched.

Sky sports box office £24.95 and no HDR, new graphics though


The Sport Thread - bkman1990 - 25-09-2021

TG4's coverage of the URC included a slide the Spoirt TG4 and RTÉ Sport logo for the other URC matches on TG4 and RTÉ2 for next weekend. On the other hand; RTÉ2 are using their own lower third's for pre/post match interviews for their own coverage of Munster vs Cell C Sharks at Thomond Park in Limerick tonight. Although; RTÉ are using official match graphics from URC. That's a little bit disappointing from RTÉ's pov. I would have thought they would be using all of the URC graphics for this new competition like RTÉ are using the same URC titles in use as TG4.

But TG4 have done much more effort to provide better graphics usage from two of their 1st matches from last night & earlier this evening. RTÉ have a cheaper looking setup for this matches with them using standard desks for the presenter & for 3 of their match analysts. TG4 made a much better effort with their OB coverage with Maire Treasa Ni Dhubhghaill having her own bespoke desk with the analysts have a cheaper desk in front of them for their own games.

I forgot to mention that RTÉ2's coverage of the Women's Rugby World Cup Qualifier match against Scotland this afternoon appeared to have a little technical glitch in RTÉ's Studio 5. The big screen in Studio 5 went entirely black for the start of their coverage today. Did that issue last for the whole programme or not?

I ain't a mod but if your looking for the updates of bt sport go to several channels off air.

Emma Raducanu: Homecoming event for US Open champion to be shown on the BBC - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/tennis/58664182

It's now got a 30-minute 3:15pm slot on BBC Two, without a thumbnail (but it's definitely still actually happening at 12:30pm). From what I've been able to glean, it's very much an LTA organised thing, so whether there will even be a BBC presenter or not, or any BBC Sport branding, or how much of the US Open footage they'll be able to show, who knows… The LTA site says there will be "a live Q&A and a host of tennis activities" (i.e. it might be awful…)

They're right in the middle of launching their latest campaign for kids, so I suspect it'll be more a behind closed doors event pitched at that, than "here's Emma Raducanu on an open topped bus" etc.

You were right about the format, but it was very well put together. Clare Balding interviewed Emma Raducanu, Joe Salisbury, Gordon Reid and Alfie Hewett chat-show style on a small stage in front of an audience of kids. Radzi Chinyanganya helped with getting the questions from the kids and presented a live feature towards the end of the programme. There was some US Open footage included credited to Prime Video.
The whole thing appeared to be produced by the LTA, rather than the BBC, and was just one part of a whole day of activities at the NTC

Yeah I thought it was pretty good. Timing of the live stream was presumably to allow schools that wished to to show it to kids during the lunch break. I had wondered if Clare would present, but didn't want to speculate. Wasn't able to see the conclusion of the repeat on BBC TWO so didn't see if there were any end credits and if a production company was mentioned.

[EDIT: iPlayer version is up now, no end credits, just a standard BBC sport endcap.]

I noticed they only used slo-mo Prime Video footage - wonder if that's because a clean feed of the audio wasn't available (or the BBC weren't allowed to broadcast the one they had for radio commentary).

Couple of things of interest: no bonus point indicator or try count
I wouldn’t have said ESPN influenced at all - if there is any NFL influence, it would probably be Fox Sports whose current scorebar is in a similar position

I meant this one

I notice the "red time" OT is now red text on black, makes it stand out better.


The Sport Thread - Rdd - 26-09-2021

That’s nearly 15 years old! But yeah I see the resemblance, and the current Fox one is similar in position.

Nowadays, ESPN MNF goes for huge scorebars that take up the whole bottom of the screen (a bit like SuperSport really). They used to have a really nice College Football score box tucked away in the bottom right hand corner but dumped it in favour of something more similar to their NFL one last season.

Shows how long it's been since I could be a*sed to watch a game on Monday night / Tuesday morning at 1am

New titles and new music (first since 2011?) for Scrum V

And got to admire the attention to detail in the World Rugby Sevens graphics using the flag of Great Britain rather than the Union Flag/flag of the United Kingdom (England, Wales and Scotland merged at least temporarily to cut costs and N. Ireland part of the whole Ireland team)

I never even noticed that the Cross of St Patrick wasn't part of the Great Britain Flag there until you said, gold star my friend.


The Sport Thread - Rdd - 27-09-2021

Who is the host broadcaster there? That scorebar is very NBC-like (and very unlike the usual stuff from World Rugby which outside of the RWC tends to be very dated looking stuff).


The Sport Thread - Brekkie - 27-09-2021

It'll be produced by World Rugby themselves. The Sevens graphics are usually much larger and bolder than those used for the Rugby World Cup.

Same graphics were used for the Women's Rugby World Cup Qualifiers last week but recoloured, see in the video below of Ireland's shock defeat to Spain
