Don't touch that dial... here's the sport on TV this weekend

Gaelic football action, the horses and a little programme we like to call the Olympic Games.
  • One to watch: Take your pick from the GAA action: Kerry and Donegal is the pick of a mouth-watering schedule.
  • One to Sky+: The ‘Lympics. there’s just so much of it.
  • One to skip: I’m not one for the rugby league, Ted.
