    ESPN Classic Sports is now testing on 12.343 H (27.5 2/3)
    It is the bar with no id.

    Its showing promos of old water sports clips, in addition to boxing, old olympic coverage etc.

    In several areas the sound is dubbed in French!!!!!

    a channel showing old sporting moments would fit right in on the EPG IMO. when Sky had the Sky Sports Gold thing going (i think it was on Sky Sports 3 when it first started) it was very enjoyable but it went and now all we have is the odd programme like Boxing Gold. roll on ESPN Classic Sports :)

    If ESPN Classic Europe is anything like its American counterpart it will be excellent. I had a quick look on the net and the American version sounds great. Rumble in the Jungle days and other days dedicated to the Chicago Bulls etc.! Also I saw that ESPN Classic Europe have bought up the rights to show classic Australian Open Tennis. While I am not a tennis fan, I hope it is a signal of intent on their part. I can`t wait to see it on the EPG.
