BBC to show Olympic opening and closing ceremonies in 3D
The BBC has today announced that it will broadcast some live Olympics coverage in 3D, including the opening and closing ceremonies, as well as a highlights package at the end of each day.
The coverage, as part of a 3D trial by the broadcaster, will be available on BBC’s HD channel.
Kim Shillinglaw, head of BBC 3D, said: “We have always said we believe some of 2012 should be captured in 3D, and we’re delighted to confirm our offer to audiences in the UK, providing them with a new way of getting close to some of the key moments from the London 2012 Olympic Games.”
