t has been almost a year since she played a competitive tennis match.
But Serena Williams has announced she will defend her Wimbledon title despite having been sidelined for much of the past 12 months by injuries and illness.And if she reaches the final, viewers will for the first time see the match in 3D - as part of the BBC’s plans to mark the 125th anniversary of the tournament.It is the first time the corporation will broadcast a programme in 3D.
The matches will take place on the first weekend of July and the corporation is even organising a special 3D screening at its Television Centre headquarters in west London.The finals will also be shown at selected cinemas, which is what the BBC did during the Six Nations Rugby Tournament and a special edition of Strictly Come Dancing for Children in Need.But this is the first time the BBC will broadcast a programme in 3D into people’ s homes – although viewers will need a 3D-ready television to be able to watch it in the format.The HD Channel is available on Freeview.
