by the BBC

The BBC will broadcast the men’s and women’s singles finals at this year’s Wimbledon Championships live in 3D. The matches, scheduled to be played on Saturday 2 July and Sunday 3 July, will be the first programmes to be shown in 3D by the BBC. The free-to-air broadcast will be available to anyone who has access to a 3D TV set and HD Channels. Danielle Nagler, head of BBC HD and 3D, said: “We’re bringing audiences a new way of getting close to the action.” She added: “I’m sure that 3D will only add to the drama as the world’s greatest players compete for the championship.”
