I think I am speaking for a lot of people when I say channel 4 is killing the WRC. THey take the p*** every bloody time with stupid broadcasting times, and thats if they even put it on at all! Then when we do actually get to see it, it it presented by a bunch of donkeys! - Was going to E-mail them and tell them this, but ofcourse, you cant! - If anyone nows an E-mail address for channel 4's complaints dept. Post it, or even better, write to them yourselves!

I've got this address as I've just sent them an email about 5 minutes ago, very similar to what you said... viewerenquiries@channel4.com

Or talk direct to WRC and tell them what a travesty C4 are making of their sport, there's a contact us by email link on www.wrc.com Just done that too.

And then to add insult to sodding injury they postpone tonights coverage of the final day because of the F'ing cricket..... Then just for good measure re-schedule it from the perfectly acceptable 7.30 and stick it on at 12.20.....

Absolutley Sheeite

Just got a reply from Ch4, their was another post but cvan't find it !
James,

The decision was made to stay with the live cricket until 7.30pm which necessitated a schedule change for WRC which, in turn, meant that we had to drop the scheduled cricket highlights.
As you can imagine, the scheduling of our programmes is one of the most difficult tasks we undertake as our viewers all lead different lifestyles and, therefore, would wish to watch television at different times. We, therefore, do our best to assess a programme's content and judge from our experience the most suitable time for transmission.
We apologise if the scheduling of this particular series is not convenient for your own viewing, but do hope you will understand how difficult this task really is. Please rest assured that your complaint has been registered.

Regards,
John Burnby
Information Officer
