I think the BBC really messed up by not having a daily review show like The Last Leg. I know it's partly because of the time difference and that they probably didn't want to put a highlights programme on while there was still live sport happening, but you need an hour long programme just so you can catch up with what's happened. Watching Alex Brooker attempt a one-legged jump over a box is possibly one of the best things I've seen this year I'm thrilled that all the worries about the crowds have been proved wrong. I thought that if they couldn't get people for the Olympics then they wouldn't get them for the Paralympics so I'm pleased to have been wrong. Maybe it's due to the prices being slashed or free tickets but it's been wonderful. The only downside is some of the coverage is a bit ropy. They appeared to only have a couple of camera angles for the rowing so it was almost impossible to work out who was leading until the finish. Looking forward to the Wheelchair Rugby - carnage |

LN - I believe there was no rowing coverage by the host nation, so C4 did their own - there was probably only a couple of camera angles because there was probably only a couple of cameras! It was nice they made the effort especially as we won so many medals, but that's probably why it was a bit ropey! The Last Leg is brilliant! |
