I'm sure someone said it was his show? Ned on his podcast or stage show? Oh well. Fingers crossed for some kind of deal happening.

Well, Gary's probably the "patron" of the itv peleton of joy, even if he doesn't own it, like Hinault was for le Tour

Somehow I can't Imagine Gary wading in with his fists to break up a strike that was threatening the broadcast.

But you never know. It's wrong to judge by appearances.

As others have said, there are other ways to watch the tour, the one I favour is tiz-cycling. I use it mainly to watch races that are not shown on WD, Eurosport ect the only down side is some of the smaller races the commentary is not in English.
