3D Wimbledon Action Served By BBC

Wimbledon is being broadcast on the BBC in 3D for the first time as the station continues to bring viewers all the colour and action, live and exclusive of the 2011 Championships.
The free-to-air broadcast of the Championships in 3D is available to anyone who has access to a 3D TV set and to HD Channels, regardless of which digital TV provider they use.
The Wimbledon finals are available in 3D on the BBC HD channel – the BBC's High Definition channel available through Freesat, Freeview and Virgin Media.
The live 3D coverage of the ladies' and men's finals on Saturday 2 July and Sunday 3 July will mark the 125th anniversary of the Wimbledon Championships.
The BBC team once again includes an enviable line-up of ex-champions and industry experts.
Sue Barker will present live daytime and evening coverage on BBC One and BBC Two. The daily highlights show, Today At Wimbledon, will be presented by John Inverdale on BBC Two at 8pm each weekday. This year the team will again include former world No. 1 and Wimbledon champion Lindsay Davenport.
As well as coverage on BBC One, BBC Two and the BBC One HD and the BBC HD channel, viewers will be able to follow the Championships via BBC Online, which is streaming all the live action direct to viewers' PCs and offering live text commentaries via the mobile service.
The BBC Sport website will show live video from selected matches, including the showpiece courts, every day, as well as on-demand video highlights. Users of the website can also enjoy the 5 Live coverage, read our popular live text commentaries, view photo galleries and see results and schedule information.
