Do any other countries show adverts DURING a final?
Here is Australia 2 nights ago they had a 3.5 minute advert break DURING the 9 minute 5000m womens steeplechase final! The mens final featured a 1.5 minute ad break - must have been because there was an Australian in race! How ridiculous is that - just wondered if that was an Australian thing. ( I can understand it in the marathon maybe or the triathlon but in a 9 minute race!!?)

Here in England, all of the events are broadcast live on the BBC Interactive service. Viewers can choose any of up to six events to watch live, and there are no adverts at all, so all events are completely uninterrupted.
