Why the BBC ruin their Sportsman of the Year Show?

[DTCwordfan]

By announcing on the news who is getting the Life Time award and a special award.....

Pathetic and it ruins it, I am heading to the pub as a result.

they do the same at the Oscars and nobody thinks the ceremony's spoilt. These are non-competitive awards.

why does it try to be funny ? sport is not funny .neither are the presenters ,why thursday night ?

[anotheoldgit]

Far too much sport on TV.

Regarding the Sportsman of the Year awards, when they pre-announce it, they go completely over the top, this 'must be watched' type of thing.

They may go into raptures but I am afraid it doesn't do anything for me, and that includes the over expensive Olympics.
