You may jest, however the commentary on the highlights show is sometimes different than the live commentary. Maybe they swap it for the other national commentaries when editing if there is a particularly bad Liggett/Sherwen commentary moment - how they identify the really bad from the run-of-the-mill bad is beyond me tho...maybe they have just given up doing it now, but they have done this in the past

I wasn't paying that much attention!!!
Liggett interview http://www.itv.com/tourdefrance/features/40-years-of-phil-liggett/
I used to like shigget and Lerwin. Once they defined the tour for me. I sought out their voices when Channel 4 ditched Le Tour.
I look back on those naive days with the fondness and inaccurate fumbling that Boris brings to his replies but alas, alack, I am forever changed now.

After 40 years service people used to retire and get a gold watch, anything to make space for younger workers. Seemed like a good scheme.....

Liggett just said Stuart O'Grady moved from Monaco to Luxembourg because he wanted his family to grow up in a more varied place. Nothing to do with Luxembourg being another tax haven then...
Liggett should be part of the truth and reconciliation proceedings that cycling needs too.

*Commenting on the Orica Greenedge Team Celebrating at the finish line in today's Team Time Trial*
'If it wasn't so politically incorrect, I'd say that they all look like a bunch of convicts!'
'If it wasn't so politically incorrect, I'd say that they all look like a bunch of convicts!'
Gary Imlach quoted that, not Liggett or Sherwin!
The only thing that gets on my tits is, when they convert kilometers into Miles incorectly, like today on the time trial, Liggett quoted "they are doing 59kph which is over 40mph", which is totally incorrect. But if I could not do the conversion in my head in an instant, I'd probably never notice the errors.
I do enjoy the Boardman-Bolting double act though. Tonight's time trial position had me guffawing.
Yes, I really like them too. I always enjoy the podcast they do, they can be quite a double act.
Where's the podcast. You told me last time but that was like.............a year ago. A few more memory cells have died since then?
Here on Itunes, it's really good.
I can't remember what I had for breakfast, let alone what someone told me a year ago
