Beijing 6, the Olympic News Channel, should not be showing surfing

[AudreyKiwi]

I signed up to Sky Sport for this month specifically to access the Beijing winter-Olympic channels, especially the channel that features the wonderful Olympic News programs produced by the Olympic Broadcasting Services. Yes, they repeat a lot, but each one-hour program includes something new, especially the background stories and interviews that are so inspirational. So I didn't expect to see surfing taking up a substantial proportion of Beijing 6. I phoned Sky to complain, but was instructed to email the programming team.  I could not find any appopriate link to do that.

In any case, I guess there's not going to be any change to the programming for the remainder of these Olympics, but please, Sky, for the next Olympics, PLEASE DEVOTE ONE CHANNEL EXCLUSIVELY TO OLYMPIC NEWS TO SHOW ALL THE PROGRAMS COMING FROM THE OBS. Thanks.

@AudreyKiwi what country are you watching in?

Bare in mind, this is for UK and Ireland and sky sport in New Zealand (assuming kiwi in your name is for that)  is unconnected to the UK company. 

I was not aware bejing 6 was on sky's epg in UK and Ireland. Sky sports here do not have the Olympics, it is Eurosport

Sigh... Yes, I'm in NZ. Thanks for letting me know. Another bad mark for Sky (NZ).
