Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, vodka in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming, "WOO HOO what a ride!"

Surprised that it’s going ahead, like most others I was a little shaken watching that. Full respect to the players of both teams being able to carry on.

I don't think anyone is suggesting coverage was cut completely.
However I remember the Fabrice Muamba incident and Sky immediately cut to crowd shots or just focused the cameras on other parts of the pitch. Going further back the camera cut away from Alen Orman very quickly as he had his seizure. Obviously we all wanted Eriksen to pull through and there's an interest in these things that is entirely natural. The initial couple of minutes are understandable as people behind the scenes scramble about trying to regain control of an uncontrollable situation. The shots of his wife and teammates were further down the line, unnecessary and tasteless.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017. Probably robbed in other years

If he's looking like he's going to pull through and it's true that he's conscious and talking then I can understand why they would want the game to restart.

Apparently we’re not allowed to watch it because the BBC must hang their heads in shame or something.

Eriksen spoke to his team mates from his hospital bed and encouraged them to continue, according to reports.

For all the criticism of the BBC, including by me, the presenters and pundits have been superb, particularly Gary Lineker and Alex Scott.

In an attempt to lighten the mood I'm going to provide a round of applause for Alex Scott's outfit. 😘

BBC could have quite easily cut to BBC news or something. There is no excuse whatever for zooming in on the guy getting CPR and a close up of his face that looked like he was close to passing away.
I can't get my head around why anybody would think that was a good idea. This is not a reality TV show in a movie.

Main thing though is Eriksen is fine .Every gimmick hungry yob,
Digging gold from rock and roll
Grabs the mic to tell us,
He'll die before he's sold.

It's a situation hardly any of us have ever witnessed before and something so emotive will always provoke a reaction. I wouldn't like to have been calling the shots, it's easy for me to snipe from the sidelines. Gary Lineker apologised for any distress caused, that should be the end of things.

We are all much more attuned to mental health and psychological trauma these days, which is obviously positive, but…
Sometimes it is best just to get on with things.

Understandably the game is being played at a much slower pace.

However, I completely get the sentiment of your final sentence. It’s a fine line between “OTT coverage” and consideration of human feelings. We all view these situations differently. That’s what makes us humanoids so unique. What is on person’s horror is another person’s intrigue. Happy mediums in these situations are almost impossible to arrive at.

BBC have a tough job, but they failed the decency test this time.
