The upcoming weekend will set a new record as far as simultaneous broadcasts are concerned. Norway, England, Germany, France, Russia and India. Never before did we have six nations at a time. Since five of the six are located in Europe, it's easy to imagine that we will have many overlapping sessions.

12 tables altogether, 10 of which will have English commentary. One room will have German and one French.

It's almost like rugby. I think they have a competition named Six Nations. Good thing we don't have scrums in bridge :rolleyes:

The crowds that gather around final rankings lists and allocations in Swiss pairs are certainly scrumesque...

I fear that many of us would be carried off the field in the first few minutes.
