Will it turn people's heads? No - However the part she visited the StarTale team house did stereotype SC2 players as nerds with no specific numbers involved when it came to prize pools to justify the amount of hours they played but it's about as honest and fair amount of coverage we'll ever get on eSports in this country until we catch up with the likes of Sweden etc. Not really. We are not on South Korea, Japan, or Sweden's level but on a Worldwide basis I would say UK is not too out of it when it comes to online gaming and esports. Good examples of countries that could be considered far, far behind would be Nigeria, Mongolia, Colombia etc. Also RTS is not that popluar a genre Worldwide currently, not just in the UK. | ||

Rather unsure of the numbers that got thrown out about audience numbers in the tens of millions around the world but hey ho. On July 10 2013 03:01 75 wrote: downloading expat shield worked for me.

I'm going to guess the program decides to give you either US or UK depending on whether you are closer to UK (such as still in Europe) or the USA. :/ Could someone please use DownloadHelper/other and reupload it somewhere? *Bats eyelids* | ||

Amusing to see Khaldor and Wolf in this! Here is an article about the Presenter Daisy Donovan for those wondering who she is... http://www.telegraph.co.uk/women/womens-life/10106670/Daisy-Donovan-I-still-cant-believe-I-asked-Denis-Healey-if-hed-given-Margaret-Thatcher-a-pearl-necklace.html | ||

It's Daisy Donovan she has been doing shows like this for a long time. I remember her doing one about metal concerts and she crowd surfed at a Spineshank gig haha. | ||

Still, it's not like all the news shows over here are like that, was my point. | ||
