Well

I really enjoy watching people do sport very well

I don't enjoy seeing it done not very well

That applies for WHATEVER reason it's not being done well. It might be because they aren't very good at the sport. It might be because they are disabled. In each case the people involved are doing the damnedest to overcome their lack of ability, and one can admire and applaud that effort. But it doens't make it a great spectacle, or one that I want to watch.

Take the blade runner bloke. It's amazing that he can balance on those things, let alone run like that. Incredible. But the fact is that he can't even run the Olympic qualifying time. He's slow.

So it's not something that, for me Brian, makes compelling TV.

I'm not flinching from the debate, but I've really got to go to a meeting now and won't be back till late afternoon. Sorry
