Wimbledon will soon be upon us and whilst some of us will be lucky enough to enjoy that glass of Pimms, punnet of strawberries and a match or two live from the All England Club, most of us – let's face it – will have to make do with secret viewings on mute from our desks at work.

That said, we mustn't be too downhearted. Because watching from afar can sometimes give even more access. For instance, being able to fully appreciate (and notice) moments like these...
