Archery on BBC Breakfast news!

6:40 this morning, I was surprised by a brief article on the sports roundup. The subject was the Asian Games and it focussed on archery. Not the sport per se (though there were some good shots of archery training in progress) but on the female torch carrier, who is an archer and is being credited with breaking down barriers for Islamic women competitors...
Good article. None of the usual daft references, and treated archery as a sport rather than a novelty.
