Anecdote
England are playing DR Congo in the World Cup this evening. The kick-off is at 5pm.
We're looking after our grandson until 6pm. My wife won't let him see a TV, computer or mobile phone screen, because she has reasons. Therefore, we're going to have to record the match and watch it as-live at least an hour behind time.
I'm hoping to avoid any spoilers, but if England score then we'll know it from the noise that will erupt from the pub down the road.
When did Congo get a PhD?
