I was particularly impressed by the event markers. For example, it was quite the novelty to click on a marker and be taken back to the beginning of a particular persons dive, then jump back to the live stream.
To my mind the mechanics of live streaming and streaming archived content are completely different and you usually have to wait ages for a live broadcast to be archived off for on-demand playback, yet the BBC somehow managed to blur the distinction. It might not be that difficult in reality but it was impressive to me.
