The presentation and the likes won't be due by then either!

Well, they just welcomed viewers on BBC Two for the rest and BBC One went to News

The ending on BBC One was a bit brisk for my liking

Not even the short theme music was played

I’m sure on the final even when running late they’d still play a montage and the long credits at the end of the BBC One programme

Cut it really fine, the continuity announcement on BBC Two was going out while the interview with Carlos Alcaraz was concluding.

Yes - rushed off air far too quickly. Should have got the extra half hour with Countryfile at 8pm but at the very least had the short theme play over the final scenes. Really this moment now with the balcony presentation should be the climax of the coverage.

I know to that Wimbledon handle the on court interviews but usually the BBC talent do the singles final, though practically it actually works for Clare to pick that up after the presentation.

Also can't recall his name but the presenter of the Wheelchair Finals was very good as well. Actually to be fair I can't fault any of the presenters, but Andrew Castle is very much the weakest link when it comes to commentary.

Thanks James2001.  Did BBC not have a proper studio this year?

Being perched on a balcony in the media centre looks rather bad. Confused

Yes they were in it at the start of yesterday's women's semifinal coverage, presumably due to the windy conditions.
