The official streaming of them is all done over the tv (red button) or on "BBC sports" website. Although I think you need to be in the UK to access the content. You should go on http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/table-tennis and click on the live stream you want to view

yes, never thought about that, I think you could also use VPN software such as Cyberghost, all the features needed are free although you have to download the software

I sometimes used Expat Shield on my last computer but decided not to use it on this one because of the way it behaved and concerns about how secure it was.

Nigeria did manage to beat Australia 3-2 (the matchup was a bit of a tragic one for me because I love Nigeria and I like William Henzell, so it was annoying but good to see William Henzell won his matches).  I don't understand though how the team pairings worked out that the Nigerian singles #1 (Aruna) didn't face Henzell, but it definitely favored Nigeria, though I doubt that Powell would have been able to handle Toriola if it came to that.

Singapore, Gold, India, Silver and I think Nigeria has a chance against either England or Wales for the Bronze.

The Team format is same as for Olympics. 5 matches 3 players each side. No player can participate in more than 2 matches. At the the start of the match 1 doubles player is nominated.Then after first two singles, coach decides who will join the doubles. The next two singles are made up of the players left who have not already played twice.

Is the order of the last two matches predetermined by letters?

A vs X
B vs Y
A+C vs  X+Z
C vs Y
B vs Z

A vs X
B vs Z
B+C vs  X+Y

If Bode Abiodun wins, Nigeria is a favorite for the upset.

Well, dreams could not come true, but that was a spirited performance.  Segun was so close in that first match and gave it all he had.

Yes, Segun played very well against Gao  - he looked like he could pull it off till the very last moment.

Now it has to be Pitchford vs Desai (10+ match points)
Drinkhall really let himself down in the doubles, playing a behind the back trick shot (and missing) at deuce and 2 games up. Baggaley did his best to carry him but they lost.
Just as well Pitchford overcame his nerves against Desai, because Achanta would probably have dealt with Baggaley.
Still England through to the final. I wonder will cookie drop Drinkhall?

Kamal Achanta seriously underperformed in at least two matches.  Cost India quite a bit...

 
But who cares?  I am not complaining.  My inestimable respect for Quadri Aruna has doubled - he guaranteed this medal back in April this year and was even more confident after the Spanish Open.

That just made "this week in unnecessary censorship" on Jimmy Kimmel!

By the way, blame Gavin Rumgay, not ZJK.

Hahaha... my forehand is better now so do expect to see some counters if you swing at me.

And if I beat Rich, this will go on camera!

Gao Ning won 10:6 in the 7th. Nothing spectacular, just good solid steady play from Gao Ning.

Liam picked up the bronze. Really nervous stuff from both players, but Pitchfork does it. Mega.

He's using the Zhang Jike Blue Dragon now...
This was a great signature until I realised it was overrated.

Bronze or silver?

Oh, silver - now I see that he was on the same half as Gao Ning - how did that happen?  Kamal Achanta was higher rated?
