hi! Yes, I agree, this was television, abiet British TV. Lots of quick cuts and use of graphics, but then that's what it takes to catch and hold the attention of the younger set. As for us oldsters, it was too quick, no time given to airing the team's mission planning sessions, before each of the three episode challenges. I did like the points system and what appears to be the use of limited paint to keep the focus on teamwork and tactics and not on putting loads of unaimed shots down range. Also thought the hudge explosion at the end of part one was great! Hope this helps open the door, if only just a crack, when it comes to our own TV networks airing more PB events, as long as they put some time and money into making them worth our viewing time. Sure there are plenty vendors who would jump at a chance to join the game, so long as they see it helps to present the sport in a positive way.. Remember, always cover your rear! Andy, aka 'Dorsai'
