Yeah I'd say let's put torrent info in the media thread, and keep this one for discussion and such. Just to make things a little easier to find. Only a couple inches here, but we've got a massive network outage on the UNIX side. Nothing to do but sit on MUTV... if only it was working properly for us. Last night I was able to use the other parts without too much trouble, like the interviews and classic match highlights.
Freeview was working fine for me this morning, I'm hoping they continue to add stuff to it as they finish up airing live.
I watched the entire memorial service and really thought it was well handled. The speaker's including Nobby Styles, Sir Bobby and Harry Gregg really did pour out their memories especially Gregg who was in his element. There were poignant moments with the prayers and songs.
The documentary shown at MUTV at this moment is available on torrents. It's an excellent insight. A must watch if someone wanted to about the days before and after the Munich Air Disaster. http://www.mininova.org/tor/1152784
Wait I thought the "Nation on Film" bit was from the Beeb? The MUTV channel has made an in-house feature length documentary called Munich, which I believe is different. I really want that out on torrents.
You could be right. But the trailer of the documentary that MUTVonline were showing about 30 minutes back was the same as on the torrent.
So according the Beeb, the minute's silence was perfectly observed at both the Ireland and Wales game - there were a few odd voices at Wembley but nothing too poor.

I watched the Harry Gregg programme..re-united which was really sad to watch. You got to see the doctor who treated Sir Matt and Duncan but Gregg had to go out because he was in tears. He describes how he saw Roger Bryne as if he was asleep. I never really knew that Johnny Berry broke his back! I knew his injuries where bad because it ended his career but not that bad.The doctor actually went round pronouncing that the likes of Sir Matt and Duncan were 50-50 but when he got to Berry he said 'I am not god' but Berry survived!
Sir Bobby Charlton has won an award for his autobiography and he credits the club for his achievement. I must admit that Sir Bobby is a well spoken person and is excellent on interviews.

His book is great, I'm looking forward to the 2nd one though it's going to have a lot less focus on United and more on England.
This is a video, its from Sky Sports. I find it very, very good. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_GgY14Ytok
