    The gaps in commentary at the Alps Tour deffo sounding like Darth Vader in the booth

    Hatch is mawkishness-on-steroids, constantly overegging the pudding. Though his voice timbre is pretty good... doesn't give me ear fatigue, unlike MartyMcD. Blythe... well, what more can be said of his cool-kid affectations? CK... nowadays, can be bearable or unbearable, depending on who I've...

    Boulting's spoiler wouldve actually ruined a mere 2 hour delayed viewing, let alone 2 days.

    When will commentators ever get the message to STFU about giving spoilers of same day cycle racing results? Case in point... just finished watching final stage of Giro dAbruzzo (thankyou Tiz), when Ned Boulting tells me that Team ***'s day just got even better, after having had good result in...

    I notice on my Sky box catch-up, where TNT Sports has replaced Eurosport, that the cycling does not have an official header, and is now merely relegated to TNT Sports > More Sports > Other Sports

    lol ok... but Woods is not the answer. You may have Patrick Derangement Syndrome as bad as my MartyMcD Derangement Syndrome. At least my pain is going to end soon :)

    No, please please please don't. Ian 'the gaffer' Woods ... nightmare! Gaffe after gaffe... constantly miscalls the race/gets names wrong/etc etc. Posey, co-commentating, constantly needing to correct him. Although tbf, on his lonesome, he does sometimes correct himself on realizing the errors.

    trivia Q. is Patrick correct with his ''Shirka-ida'' pronunciation ? or is he just being annoying, like he is with his Alpe Chera-meece/Michal Krish-marsh/Lou John-minnu?

    Im on ITV4, avoiding the Tour de Bantz on ES (even if the unwatchable Bloke is out on the mbike)... but ffs, im straining my ears to hear Cuddles & Matt Rendell with their constant mumbling and trailing-off into sub-audible levels. Speak UP fellas!! almost as bad as creepy whispering Pippa York.

    Jacopo is enough to give me a man-crush.. and im not gay. that deep, clear, husky Ganna-esque voice - a perfect antidote to the useless Pippa York.

    Commentary on TNT and other WB brands

    infuriating Eurosport... really fkin annoying... pishing around in the studio with their own predictions 'ceremony', amongst other inane chat, whilst ignoring the actual podium presentations on-screen in the background. Same story at TdF iirc - with all the choppy back & forth - but fortunately...
