Fck me is this the worlds most annoying woman?
Every time something goes wrong for a Brit she looks for a way to blame Johnny Foreigner. This Christie girl in the speed skating puts herself about, clearly racing to intimidate the Chinese girl and when she forces her on the floor, tries to put blame on the Chinese for catching her with her skate.
Fortunately the only bloke on the panel politely puts her right while the other girls keep their heads down.
God I miss the likes of David Coleman. |  | | |  |

Except she was right in this case and Christie has been adjudged to have been at fault for the incident. Carry on though. |  |

The BBCs obsession with British athletes in with a chance of a medal is cringeworthy... Baldthing is annoying but most of the presenters are on the same agenda! |  | | |

She should go back to the horse racing, she has the looks for that. |  |

Female version of Jeremy Vine. Absolutely loves the sound of her own voice. Annoying to point of painful. |  |

That Christie in the 1500 speed was never doing to win and was too aggressive, got what she deserved, I feel sorry for the girl she stopped from winning silver. | |

Wasn't the final, was only qualifying. Denied herself and the chinese girl a shot in the final though. |  | | |

If the BBC weren't focussed on the Brits, they'd be getting dog's abuse, probably from the same people . | | | |

I find the BBC totally the opposite. In their annoyingly "politically correct" way they go out of their way to show no bias towards British competitors. Example - in the skeleton when the Austrian who went last failed to get a medal, meaning we won a gold and a bronze, all they could say was how the "felt sorry" for the Austrian. Can you imagine German or Austrian commentators "feeling sorry" for the British in the reverse situation? They are (supposedly) the British Broadcasting Corporation so why don't they give proper support to the British competitors. Get behind your fellow countrymen, there is nothing wrong with that. |  | | |

One of the co-commentators in the middle of the excitement about the gold and bronze, briefly mentioned the poor Austrian girl, and how gutted she was for her (she'd clearly known her for ages). Hardly ignored the result.
Proved my point from an earlier post though.
BBC get criticised regardless by some. | | | |

It’s all about opinions I suppose but i prefer Eurosport’s non biased approach of showing as much sporty as possible without the massive build up and the Spanish Inquisition afterwards. | | | |

You're both wrong. Li got to the final as she was advanced as she was taken out by Christie. She won the silver. |  | | |

Me too, she does such a wide range of sports and is always supremely knowledgable about them, meaning she does her research. Plenty of other presenters don't bother. |  |

I have absolutely no problem with Clare Balding. It's just that whenever I see her on TV, I am instantly reminded of:

I've come to the conclusion that curling goes on a bit. I like the snow skateboarding though. |  |
