This could be done now using Teletext in-vision, but I disagree with your idea.
Why in the future should the viewer have to decide whats on the screen - people are paid to make these decision for us, and most viewers just want to sit and watch the TV. Although some interactive ideas are good, they should be for extras, rather than getting you involved in the production of the programme.

I think when analogue TV signals are eventually switched off, whenever that will be, broadcasters will no longer need to show the score and time at the top of the screen. Instead, viewers can have the choice of displaying it on the screen using digital text.
In fact..this could be possible now. Analogue transmissions can show the score box while digital viewers won't have to. Or would broadcasters not be able to justify the extra expense of providing separate analogue and digital feeds?

Why in the future should the viewer not have choice about how they view a sports event or anything else? I do agree with you to a certain extent...most people probably aren't bothered with interactive features or dog-free screens but it's useful for those that want to to be able to customise. The score and time aston could appear by default and if the viewer doesn't want it on the screen, or would like more information such as possession, corners taken etc. statistics then they can use the interactive features to access all that.
Digital and interactive TV services should be about giving viewers more choice to watch or interact with TV the way they want to while still providing a standard service for people who can't be bothered with all that.

ITV's however for this world cup however is nothing short of awful - it's way too big. Infact, apart from their decent opening titles, have ITV got anything right presentation wise for this world cup? It's a shocking turnaround from even Euro 2000 - ITV suddenly seem to have no idea how to present football in a slick manner...
Shock! TV Forum doesn't like ITV's coverage, and praises everything about the BBC's. (I wouldn't have guessed)
The BBC's scorebox is awful, that yellow is discusting, I don't know why they can't use the traditional way they used to do it, They are trying to be too modern, and failing
I think the host broadcaster's graphics should always be used, hence those famous Italia 90 ones that always appear whenever clips of Gazza and Lineker are shown, The BBC using its own graphics is just forgetable, and it might as well be any old normal edition of Match of the Day
