I love watching Wimbledon on telly.
1. I'm a bit past getting on a train to London and then camping out all-night.
2. I couldn't afford it.
3. With the red button, I can go from court to court, without moving.
4. I can get a cuppa at the break and not pay through the nose for it.
5. I can see the winners being interviewed, after the match.

Clio - best seat there is! Plus seeing close ups of players expressions is a bonus - and I like listening to Boris earning a few bob... He's funny - for a German 😁

Actually, I prefer women's tennis. I expect some of these people only buy the fattest books, on the grounds that they're better value for money.

I would like to see the usual suspects turfed out somehow, maybe some sort of handicap system as they use in horseracing, and let some fresh faces win a few times I would also like to see grunting and shrieking banned or penalised, do you need to make a noise just because you have hit a ball

I'm glad that Nadal is out, his irritating habit of touching his hair and points on his face along with scratching his bum before each serve muust annoy his opponent

JK - ooh, such excitement to have got this far! Venus now. Is the surname alone a psychological advantage? Johanna IS good, but can be a bit inconsistent...

I saw that the Scottish lad was knocked out. He is of course British when he is winning
