I doubt it @Hostafan1. All sorts of league and non league clubs have women's team and they attract fans to watch and support them. Clearly this last year has affected numbers but it's a growing popular sport.
I don't care about football or opera but I know which I think is more "popular". I will never watch either live or on TV or streamed but at least now you know where to look.

And the BBC provides a whole radio station just for those of us who love ‘classical’ music (for want of a better term) and jazz ... and its absolutely free .... we don’t even have to pay a licence fee for it. 😎 And it puts on the Proms and sponsors other performances across the country.

@didyw, what you need is an old upturned wire hanging basket (pinned down) over your mint plant. That protects the base of the plant and the animals can only chew the ends.
Regarding the comment about having to dumb down sport for the American audience - it was once said that the American audience can't compute the idea of a match being drawn, and when the USA qualified for the World Cup, commentators in the USA referred to a draw as 'a half win'. I don't know if that is true but it really wouldn't surprise me.
Opera is not mainstream @Hostafan1! Hurts my ears and I'm not alone.
I agree Obelixx. I was watching an early episode of "Morse" recently and he always had opera blasting out. It's the high pitched females I can't cope with. Sounds to me like a combination of a cat being 'done' without anaesthetic and nails being dragged down a blackboard (chalkboard for those of a delicate disposition to old terminology).
If you went to grammar school before the rise of comprehensives there was always a Latin stream so not posh at all, just good brain exercise.
It wasn't just a Latin stream at my school. All pupils had to take Latin for the first 3 years prior to GCE choices being made. I've always loved languages but my Latin teacher and I didn't get on for some genuinely unknown reason, unknown to me at least. I couldn't even get into the cricket team because he was in charge of it, and I was a pretty good player if I do say so.

I've just washed all my non leather gardening gloves.😟
As befits all ladder climbers just watch it dont *&^* on you as it does so.
Hmmm.. can I translate that to Latin?
