Crufts on the Box!

OK guys what do we really think of the coverage? My views for day one are
a) Ben Fogle is considerably better than last year but he is still reading!
b) They should have done more on the other activities that were there
c) I laughed when the dogs ate all their little models!
d) The retriever display team was awesome and they should have showed it all
e) Thought the flatcoat was a worthy winner
f) looking forward to tomorrow

Still thought Ben Fogle was useless I'm afraid...
I agree more on the other things going on would have been good...
The flattie was beautiful...but aren't they all?!!!!!!
Sort of hoping the well kept flattie secret doesn't get out there though.....shhhhh...they are wonderful dogs....shhhhhhhh.

It just doesn't show enough of the dogs and the actual events anymore like it used too and i miss how with the old shows they used to have the bit before showing the judging where they had certain breeds from the group and spoke about them etc.

I thought it was terrible!!! Gundog day and all we saw of the judging was the final few pulled out in the group!! It hardly took up ten minutes of the hour long programme!!
I can't believe such limited coverage on what is such a huge event these days.......

Usual drivel not enough dogs and WHY do they persist in doing stupid mini documentaries on people? I switched off after the group.
The only human bit worth watching was Frank Kane, he's great fun if you are in the ring and he is judging, especially if your dog stops halfway back up to him to slowly chew a treat someone else has dropped

I just watched the BBC interactive coverage and it showed the group judging in more detail and the rest of the show was flyball and agilty, much better than the actual BBC2 coverage
