The only exception was Spain, the host country, where the RTVE
group offered almost 65 hours of coverage for Seville compared to
60 hours for Athens in 1997.
Although channels provided greater coverage of Edmonton in 2001
the time difference between Canada and Europe made it impossible
for the event to reach the high audience ratings achieved in
Seville in 1999.
