    When at home I will watch the games on BBC HD or ITV1 HD. I will then watch the punditry on RTÉ Two.

    At work it is a mixture of BBC One, RTÉ Two and the BBC/ITV websites (the ITV website is absolute **** BTW)

    Depends where I am, mostly through a SkyBox.
    EDIT: Also, RTE for the most part, BBC and ITV are horrible to watch this year.

    I watch it on RTE.

    It's comedy gold and there's always something going on.
    Either the crew will be messing up, or there's outrageous comments coming from the panels they have.

    Divided equally three ways between RTÉ via rte.ie accessed through a proxy, German TV on the TV in work, and the massive public screens downtown. It's fantastic!
