Simon Hughes is in danger of becoming a pillock.

Having read his "Yakka" books, I'd say he has been a pillock for quite some time.

Indeed. The slightly twisted facially (but not as bad as Carswell), former Lib Dem MP pillock.

I always used to like a bit of Tony Greig.

Especially once I had listened to the Twelfth Man spoofs. Brilliant.

His (spoof) description of Imran Khan's bed sheets "billowing up like a Parkistani marquee" was my all time favourite.

TMS always has fantastic commentators. Their guest commentators like Jim Maxwell and Rameez Raja are also always excellent. Mark Nicholas is annoying, as is Simon Hughes at times. Richie Benaud will always be the doyen though

Jim Laker? I liked him too...and Peter West you knew it was raining when Peter West was on.

If the 'how they make cricket balls' vid was playing it must have been pissing down.

I saw Blowers (Henry Blowfeld) doing his one man show in Thornbury several years ago. Very funny he is too. Plus he revealed that Ian Fleming used the name Blowfeld for the Bond villan after seeing it three times at a Club of which he was a member. Turns out it was Henry, his father and brother.
Speaking of Simon Hughes he was a pillock when he played for Durham, back in our first season in the County Championship.
