Paralympic Coverage – Where to Watch our Curlers in Beijing
The Beijing 2022 Paralympics are here, and we are excited to be supporting our curlers for the next eight days. Here is a quick breakdown of where you can follow the Paralympics GB Team as they take to the ice in China.
Paralympic coverage in the UK is exclusive to Channel 4 – the broadcaster will host over 80 hours of sporting action across their platforms with events being shown on the TV channel, the All 4 online service, and on the C4 YouTube channel.
Besides sports coverage, C4 will be showing Winter Paralympics: Breakfast every day at 8am and the daily highlights show Today in Beijing in the evening to catch up on events and talk through what’s to come. Live sports action starts in the early hours of Saturday 5 March – for up-to-date scheduling information, keep an eye on the C4 TV guide.
The TV guide indicates that the time slot from 1 am to 9 am on Channel 4 is reserved for Paralympic coverage with flexibility in what events will be shown. While it is likely that wheelchair curling will at least partially feature in these slots, you can make sure to miss nothing of the action by watching the games live and on-demand on YouTube:

In a global first, C4 will have an all-star, all-disabled presenting and punditry team for the Games.

On location in China, swimmer Ellie Robinson and racing driver Billy Monger will function as on-screen reporters alongside sit-kier Sean Rose as pundit. Arthur Williams will lead overnight sports coverage.
