Hey, he's already got Henman beat on Grand Slam Final appearances.

But yes, it is important to keep calm during the media storm that Wimbledon is always manufacturing surrounding British hopes.

Yeah, 2-0 up but now 15-30 down on her serve.

EDIT: Sorted it out now, and should hold.

Judging by the lines, they're only filming this in HD and compressing it down. :?

I love how when Murray is doing well he's British, yet when he'll inevitably crash out he'll be Scottish.

I wondered what the strawberry float was going on with my picture.

The new Court 2 looks good.

It's an SD picture on the red button service.

It's weird that they would have the BBC2 feed as HD when the people who can see it in HD would have BBC HD already.

Yep. Looks like ass on my HDTV (just watching on Freeview BBC2 as I don't have BBCHD). I thought something was up with my eyes when they were interviewing Henman and his suit seemed to have a life of its own.
