France in Focus

Anyone tried to watch it yet? no chance ITV4 has lost the tv rights Warner Bros have bought them, its available on HB Box and Discovery, as far as I can tell both subscription channels. You could watch it on S4C if you want it in Welsh with subtitles Me and DW have followed F1 for 30/40 yrs since it was sold its very rare for us to watch it now, seems that most sports are heading that way, money is power, time to get the Monopoly and Mousetrap games out

Do you have freesat ? if so a Tour de France daily highlights show will be broadcast on Channel 5 at 7pm till 8pm.

If you've got a decent VPN set it to Australia & try SBS sport. (sorry for previous typo)

It seemed to work yesterday although by the time I'd discovered the channel & set up an free account the days tour was over.
Haven't tried today as otherwise occupied but it seems genuine.

Also available on French TV ,I believe, if you've got a connection to it such as an Orange decoder & suitable hdmi tele.port

Edit. just tried it. Deffo works.

France 2 and eurosport

We signed up to France 2 on an (old) smart tv using the amazon firestick. Extensive live coverage - no extra cost. Brilliant.

There is no cost on terrestrial France 2

No, but we don't have French tv in general - this is via an app.

If you have Orange as internet supplier (and I know many hate them), you can access France 2 over the internet.
