Watching the Wimbledon tennis on TV in Frankfurt

Where to do this, and who wants to meet up?

Wimbledon starts on Monday! I plan on watching the whole damn thing if poss and would like others to watch it with me.

Does anyone know if it will be shown on normal German TV? If so, I'd be happy to host regular watching sessions at my place (between Bornheim and the center). There'll be strawberries and cream!

If it's not on TV, I'll go to the pub every day and watch it there while pretending to work (rather than pretending to work at home).

Let me know if you want to join me.

How about this?

It'll probably be possible to bypass the restriction by using public proxy, or at least through a VPN. Also, I suppose atdhe.net will broadcast the matches. I'd watch it only with some oldschool British commentary. Not sure if I'll be around, though, my boss threatens me with some business trip.

I'm guessing that's from the official site?

From this forum http://www.tennisforum.com/showthread.php?t=346923 it looks like it's not on normal TV.

So it looks like I'll be in the pub every day. It's a hard life
