So, you watched the London Triathlon on BBC Grandstand? Spot any deliberate errors? Like, as Steve Rider introduces the segment and says that they had 20,000 entries - even the London Triathlon's own publicity machine doesn't push it quite that far! Or, in Gary Imlach's introduction where it's the third biggest triathlon in the world (er, NOT! - it wasn't even the biggest in the UK this year) but only had 1,000 entries... Perhaps the best bit of "balls" was Mr Storey's comment that Jodie Swallow was "...swimming as a former international swimmer would swim." Er, yes, quite!

I know we should be grateful for the coverage, and we are, but it would be nice if the production people actually checked some of the stuff that gets put down as commentary.
