Well, after 12 seasons of contributing to this thread, I have decided to bring my involvement to an end. I am not prepared to pay £31 a month anymore to TNT to access UK coverage. I will follow the sport on YouTube etc. Adieu and enjoy!

It seems to me that Carlton has been relegated to 2nd commentator this year. Usually they switch each stage between CK and RH for who does the last few dozen km to finish but as far as I can see, RH has done every finale so far. Is CK doing a global ES commentary for the closing stages like he...

New commentator popped up on the Andorra Classic called Jon/John Bevan. Anyone know much about him?

Just catching up on Tour of Slovenia... last year so often they had lead commentators on their own for minor races, but for stage 5 they paired up Declan Quigley and Jonathan Harris-Bass! A few months back they had Robbie McEwen on lead comms.

Sometimes I wonder with some of Sean's phrases 😅

There There is Viz comic strip idea within that.. the sports commentator that cannot help but overegg the pudding on every day mundanity 😅

Well, we are now into the TNT era and Eurosport in the UK is no more.

Good to hear big Maggy back in the booth after a good while away.

Certainly doing TDU I wondered if he was keeping it down because the family were sleeping 😄 it was almost snooker-like commentary when they have to whisper as they're in the same room as the game.

And in UK you need two premium packages to watch it all. No longer a subscriber so not sure total cost these days. Eye watering anyway!

Well, what a sad day. Eurosport (in the UK) will be done by the end of next month. For me, this may be the end of the road as I am not sure I will be spending the £30.99 TNT are looking for. Appalling. https://www.superbike.co.uk/article/tnt-sports-acquire-eurosport
