[Timelord2018]

The Sport reference on sky stream packages page ' stream over 300 days of Cycling including the Tour De France, snooker and motorsports' has now been removed after 3 weeks.

Same with me i kept my subscription to watch Eurosport, as it's no longer part of the package subsription is not worth it plus possible price increase April.

Yes watching cycling is going to become very expensive, especially compared to other regions. Just read an article in a cycling mag comparing the costs, it almost brings me to tears when I read that in Germany you can get it for €4.99 a month (Discovery there still includes Eurosport).

Has there been any confirmation, or even speculation, about what current Eurosport sport is going to be shown on Quest?

Not watching garbage low bitrate SD so haven't even bothered to look.

The premium+tnt sports package on the discovery+ UK site says "grand tour cycling" - not clear if they're even going to include all the other world tour events and spring classics etc.

quite sad when I think back to the support Sky gave the sport circa 2012.

As  I understand it if you have B.T. Broadband you get the 4 liner T.N.T. Sports  channels on your SKY E.P.G. and the Red Button service.

On Saturday 15th February 2025 the first Eurosport programme was broadcast on the T.N.T. Sport 4 channel. A review of the 2024 British Superbike Championships. With subtitles [Which would nver happen on Eurosport 1 and 2 but the world feed channels.

[theredhouse55555]

I have spoken  to some people who used to work for Sky and they are saying if T.N.T. do not broadcast the english language Eurosport coverage it would be illegal. I [Myself] do not know about the legalise about that but I hope eithier we get the Eurosport coverage or T.N.T. Production and presenters from former Eurosport programmes.

BT don't do residential broadband any more, it's all been shifted to the EE branding so I suspect this may have also changed?

@theredhouse55555 BT Sport was given away for free with BT Broadband only for the first couple of years. It then moved to a heavily discounted product before becoming a full price add on. It hasn't been free with broadband for years

Are sky giving an reduction/offers due to the loss of Eurosport behind the £31 TNT paywall ? I hear virgin are giving free TNT sports until the rnd of uour contract snd just £10 a month if you contract now.
