Looks interesting - I take it 'High Altitude' is the Top Ski Gear Sunday portion of the show, and the teatime show is going to be race-orientated...

Hurrah! Skiing on telly at last! I've been getting withdrawal symptoms...
papasmurf, if you use Freeview you can access and therefore record the BBCi services via channels 301, 302, 303, 304. No idea about Sky though as I don't have it...

I don't know what it is about the BBC, they seem to think that the first half of any season doesn't exist. We're half way through the WC and we'll just about start getting some highlights, and if you were to take your queue from the BBC you wouldn't think there was any rugby until February (not that it matters this year as ITV has the terrestrial highlights rights as opposed to the useless wazzocks at BBC Sport...)

Does that mean they're moving the Match Of The Day 2 slot on a Sunday night? I'm all for a bit of skiing, but let's be serious here...

You want to move about 20 miles West
We get Magners league and EDF cup matches live here in Wales. One on Friday evening on BBC2, and one on Saturday on S4C (Welsh commentary but with English subtitles).
And of course all the internationals live.

Does any one know what happened to the Ski Racing show on channel 4? That was the only place that I could get real access to the world cup due to Ski Sunday's new format.

surfer_chicky, and Travel Channel (for Skier's World).
papasmurf, jonm, if you have an el cheapo generic DVB-S receiver, then you can tune the red button channels which appear just like any other channel, and hence record them. Only problem is that you need to know for sure which will be the one you need to record, and there's no EPG, so you need to set record start+end times.

Liam, I didn't see the programme yesterday but www.tvguide.co.uk said that it was called 'The Alps' and had this summary 'Graham Bell treks across the Alps during the summer months, to see the famous ski slopes transformed into a feast of flora and fauna. Plus, an exhilarating visit to Europe's highest mountain refuge'.
It sounds like a repeat of a programme aired last year

I've just seen that on BBCs red button (ch301 or 302 on freeview) - this coming Saturday 12noon, live ski racing from Wengen.
I was watching 301 waiting for the snooker to start and they had programme listings for the red button. I had to do a double take but it definitely said it was on.

nbt, ah right, sorry. Can't help then

nbt, please let me know if you find out, although I think the Beeb allocate them pretty much at random. I'll try setting all four to record (I think they're on the same mux so my recorder should support it) as I'm definitely out during the live broadcasts I guess they won't be on iPlayer either.

i believe that the red button is channel 302, that is where the snooker is at least.

The video of the making of the opening sequence to ski sunday is on the bbc sport website 6 mins long, good viewing, shot in New Zeland.

If you watch BBC1 and press the red button you get a choice of which chanel you watch so it could be 301 or 302

FAQ
), excellent coverage of Welsh rugby on BBC2W (quite often put it on of a Friday evening). I even noticed when watching the Llanelli v Newport match last week that S4C now has an option (on Sky at least) to get English commentary. 
(My technique used to be very similar to Bode Miller's you know...)
