PASS THE REMOTE

Sports fans watching the Olympics on television in other nations ? especially in the United States ? would barely believe the live action on offer in Britain.

The BBC's two main channels are dedicated to the games. In addition, those who pay for UK satellite TV or are watching via the BBC website can see 24 other live channels.

That means if you want to watch the entire men's 94 kilogram weightlifting, you go right ahead. The sailing channel shows entire races, complete with graphics to help viewers see exactly how far apart the leaders are. Niche sports on tap Saturday included handball, table tennis, water polo, trampolining, field hockey, shooting, fencing, sailing, equestrian and weightlifting. Plus you can watch all the big name events live too.

Honey, where's the remote?
