Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Actually I've already watched both runs of both Adelboden races on ES so shame there isn't just a bikini edit.

rob@rar, Come off it, we've got threads on her admiring her feisty spirit (me included). Whilst I agree she probably had little choice about her interview topic, it was an awful piece of journalism/ entertainment. Why couldn't she do something less "fluffy"? Why not do something more like Ed and Graham?


Sums it up for me too. Nothing wrong seeing her have fun but maybe better on a Dancing on Ice trailer not a sports programme where she could have made more of the opportunity to raise her ski profile. Maybe a piece on her rehab or something and/or commentary.

The two grizzled presenters are still being professional to camera and interviewing Benni Raich casting him as obiwan to some upcoming austrian's Luke. Guys star wars is nearly 40 years old. It may have been formative in your youth but it happened a long long time ago in a galaxy far far away.


I know! I was Shocked then Laughing . I wanted Benni to say, (in a comedy German accent), "Vat are you talking about, you imbecile?"

The racing I'd already seen on Eurosport and I'm not really interested in Chemmy and Jules lezzing it up for the boys so I'd switched off before Jenny Jones. Which may have been interesting.

I like ski sunday but I much preferred the sister show, high altitude. Does anyone know if that show has been canned or is there a chance of a further series in the pipeline? it was epic.

If they went back to the old format of less repetitive racing and more on skiing/boarding and resort info etc they would maybe get better ratings.


Er, whatever.

Ski Sunday used to be an extension of Grandstand and was always a ski racing highlights show since it first aired in the late 70s. The 'lifestyle' format was a pretty recent thing.

And personally, at 45 minutes a show a week, I'd prefer more ski racing and one less n0b£nd snowboarder eating up the duration with his embarrassingly weak and pointless segments about nothing.

it is not that she is getting her baps out and indulging in soft porn
that is what fiesty fit birds do

but

it is that she is trying to position herself as a serious presenter
then getting her baps out and indulging in soft porn

Depends what you find interesting but the've just had Chemmy and Julia Mancuso rolling round in the snow in their bikinis.


Shark: jumped. Utter waste of broadcasting time. I don't honestly know what the producers of SS think they're doing, but the complaint that gets levelled at them time and time and time again is 'not enough actual skiing'. So they respond with 'Chemmy and Julia's aimless poolside chats'.

And the contempt towards snowboarding was even more in evidence than usual. "P.S. here's some inarticulate buck-toothed chav doing some trick or other. BYE THEN".

I guess the problem with 'High Altitude' was that the BBC had to spend money on it.

I am genuinely not trying to troll, just slightly surprised by people’s attitudes to some lizard cutting around in a Bikini. I thought most skiers were pretty liberal, the ones I have met whilst doing some 'après' certainly have been. NehNeh NehNeh

I'd be more likely to watch it if it wasn't just ski racing. Don't mind a bit but find it very very repetitive. Just a few short powder skiing segments or something like that just to mix it up and get more people involved would be cool I think.

But aimless chat doesn't attract anybody.

Well I'm annoyed now 'cos I fell asleep as the Chemmy bit started. Mad

havin worked with top female cyclists I feel such coverage doesn't do thier sporting credibilty any good, btu these days it seems any exposure (pun intended) raises you profile and helps raise funds.

adithorp, amazing she can do that with just the one leg.

Anyway, when you consider the BBC's resources SS could be so much better. For starters, they showed a GS race that was already ancient history in news media terms. And when they do the Schladming Night Slalom the broadcast may as well be in a different eon. In the Vine days they used to shoot on tape on and before the saturday race, then one of the crew would literally hot foot it to the airport and get tapes back to White City for overnight editing ready for sunday broadcast. Despite huge advances in live feeds and transmission of other footage, the customer experience hasn't moved on.

It needs to be more immediate like Eurosport (but not necessarily live and not necessarily on a sunday), or it needs to be a round-up and analysis show like Match of the Day. It needs an Anchor, a professional presenter to hold it all together and then the athletes can then be there as experts doing the inside job.

I think the programme sometimes talks down to the audience. There was Chemmy doing what I though was a decent interview and then it got dumbed down with a bit of titilation. Don't get me wrong, nowt wrong with fit burds prancing about in bikinis but what was the thinking?

Personally, I'd bin the theme tune (plain old fashioned like Pot Black), bin the name (cos it's more than just "ski" and it shouldn't be restricted to "sunday") and give it a big rethink.

Well I just watched it and it was pretty good IMHO. Nice balance of lycra clad ski racing to other stuff. The snowboarding bit wasn't long enough to outstay it's welcome and I found the whole thing fairly entertaining.
