Yes, TVB is going fully HD
By the way, even the Hong Kong Jockey Club is going HD

TVB's move should be very good for future badminton broadcasts.

Serious contenders for Oustanding Badminton Costume in HK SS Open 2007. From far looking at the Canadian player, I thought they have RFID attached! Actually this is not a bad idea, it is easier to track down the player so that they won't be late for the match while sleeping in some corner in the stadium

Tape comes with various size, shape and colours. Blue boomerang shape tape to go with Roslin's blue colour short.

Some more pictures. Zheng Bo blaming his equipment for poor play. Haven't we all heard that excuse before?

Even the coaches got annoyed at Zheng Bo for blaming his equipment.

Tang watching the singles match with Badmania as his advisor.

Chong Wei gives a startled expression when the umpire overrules the linesman thus giving the point to Lin Dan.

Setiawan in action :
"Mouse ol buddy I'm holding off the darts, get your cannons ready. Shoot! Shoot!!" Can hear from the back "Yes, pillar, shoottiinngggg, shooooting. Hold off the arrows for a while."


Tony's squating technique : "Me is ol wise one. No need to jump about. just sit and mediate. Here, swat one fly. Here, swat anothher fly."

i deliberately avoid shooting XXF this time around in China and HK. her hair looks so bad it is wasting my film.

Agree.But I thought you did her more harm than she did you.The pretty XXF looked like an Aunty with a 50s hairdo.Better let Red to take care of her.
However, XXF is rarely photogenic. Strange though, she's rather telegenic.
