The Hogshead, Weymouth

I visited Weymouth in the weekend and was keen on watching a game televised on sky. I asked at Weymouth Information who set me to The Hogshead. I turned up and was happy to see about 9 tv's and next to no-one in the pub. I asked if they were going to be screening the game and the manager said he would put it on the tv down stairs. I got a pint and waited... and waited... and waited. I asked a staff member if they were going to put the game on still. He said everyone was watching another channel. I pointed out no one was watching the tv down the bottom, but he said he was still not sure. So I asked if he could tell me if he could find out, so if they weren't going to screen it I could go elsewhere and catch the second half. "nah, I dunno?" he replied.

The most useless hospitality ever! They'll serve a beer, but that's about it.
