I've just returned to the UK after living for many years in the Far East.
I was disappointed to see that the UK Channel 4 no longer broadcasts Sumo
as they used to.  There only seems to be intermittent, very poor, coverage
by British Eurosport.

Whatever happened to the Channel 4 coverage?  Surely Sumo didn't lose
popularity in the UK?
