Similar question with a twist - do you think any pubs or anywhere else would let in a 9 year old to watch it? Would be great if my son could have the same sort of experience that I had in 1984 but it's more difficult now it's not on BBC / ITV. Alternatively, is there any way of getting BT Sport on a one-off basis on Freeview?
BT Sport have confirmed that they are going to be showing it free to air, so if you get the BT sport channel on your freeview, you will be able to watch it. Alternatively, I know the Duke of Sussex in Peckham will be showing it and they will allow kids in there.

From what I know the BT contract with UEFA included a proviso wherein they must show, free to air, one group game from each of the English teams and one game from the three knockout rounds. And the final. I watched several of these matches including the brilliant Barca - Atletico first leg quarter. The English games they showed were the more low key group games.

Upon reflection I've concluded that staying in will mean missing most of the first half whilst being expected to help with kids bedtime. So pub it is.

    • So what is the issue? You want compensation for the loss of value, or you want to expedite the matter?
    • No. What happened? I actually thought, considering it was what we used to call Guy Fawkes Day last night, the loud noises from  fireworks ended remarkably early. About 9pm? Maybe I just fell asleep and didn't hear any later ones. Do people actually burn Guys any more? Apart from at places like Lewes, where I believe they still have Bonfire Societies and burn effigies of various political figures etc.
    • The accompaniment to our "Christmas Pudding" aka Nothing-Whatever-Like-A- Christmas-Pudding last year  at The Cherry Tree was "brandy butter ice-cream." If it had ever been near any brandy, the brandy must have been waved in its direction from a very great distance. Same with butter. The ice cream tasted like bog standard "vanilla" from a catering tub. At least it did bear some resemblance to ice cream. Whereas the "Christmas Pudding" bore no resemblance whatever to any Christmas Pudding I have ever seen or tasted in my many  decades of seeing and tasting Christmas Puddings. Oh, and Cinzano Bianco. Bleurgh. My sister used to drink that. 🤢
