I agree that loads of other people will be at work when the football is on, so I have little sympathy for the crew - as Sister Sledge from Sm:tv live would say "Deal with it!!"
I wonder if they might show one of the matches as a "reward" for a task??
The onlt other thin I can remember being shown was in BB1 when Darren got to see pictures of one of his children's birthday party - which was a much more personal event of course.
