Is it possible to watch too much sport? And can you really get square eyes? Find out as Steve Hill spends a year watching all the sport he can whilst trying to keep his sanity. One Man. 365 days. Multiple screens. This is Wall of Sport.
Is it possible to watch too much sport? And can you really get square eyes? One Man. 365 days. Multiple screens. Always different, always the same, the sporting calendar is firmly entrenched in our everyday lives. Astonishingly, some people manage to live in this godforsaken country without this perennial comfort blanket. Steve Hill is not one of them. Utterly dependent on a heady cocktail of live drama simply to make it through the day, Hill’s year is dominated by the sporting seasons, each new dawn promising endless, pointless possibilities. Whether in bed, the bath, or on the sofa, he remains plugged into the matrix on a variety of devices, chasing sport around the globe. On the rare occasions he does leave the house, it’s primarily to watch more sport. Interspersed with anecdotes from the basement of journalism, Wall Of Sport is the daily diary of a screen addict. It also provides a comprehensive sporting almanac of the momentous year that was 2018, before the world of sport was turned on its head. Without sport, there is only weather. If you don’t want to know the score, look away now…
