Having watched most of Euro 2016 so far on French television, we can definitely say that the level of coverage has been a cut above that of Sky Sports and their piffling touch-screens.
First we saw David Ginola interview Didier Deschamps via hologram (via hologram, we say!), followed by a truly majestic piece of technological wizardry on channel M6 during the France-Switzerland game that saw the presenter step out of the studio, THROUGH the giant television screen and out onto the pitch.
It was sort of like that A-Ha video, only much more flashy…
Énorme l’effet “J te rejoins sur la pelouse” avec @CarineGalli sur @M6 au top ! #SUIFRA #AllezLesBleus pic.twitter.com/o3sWSlxppY
