And the reporter was Katie Shanahan.

I agree the standard of coverage was very good to have John Rawling, John Gwynne and Chris Mason on commentary was excellent.

Could have done without the special co-commentators but other than that I hope to see some more Darts on Dave.

Adam Smith presented from ringside at Goodison Park alongside Johnny Nelson, Carl Froch and Glenn McCrory

Commentators: Nick Halling and Jim Watt

Reporter: Andy Scott

I think the plan was to have Carl Froch provide his analysis at the end of the every third round during the main event. I didn't watch the undercard, so I don't know if any different commentary teams were used on those fights.”

Just a slight correction Mr Difference. Ed Robinson was the presenter of the whole show.

Adam Smith and Carl Froch commentated on the first 2 or 3 fights on the undercard.

Ah, thanks for the correction and the additional information. I'm not hugely familiar with Ed Robinson or Adam Smith, which is why I mistook Adam for Ed.

Wee (uninteresting) note on Sky's European Tour Golf. They are now using their current graphic set (with a light blue/white colour routine) across their coverage. I seen it last week but thought that was just for the main European Tour event, however it has continued this week. The European Tour world feed is still using the older curvy black/blue graphics set, so clearly Sky have wanted to put their own 'skin' on their own ET broadcasts. The Golf Channel in the US use their own usual graphics too for the European Tour coverage.

I've mentioned it before a couple of times a few years back. In Europe/UK we seem to be really accomodating with providing clean feeds/graphic free coverage of things but we/tv companies here are forced to take host feeds from the likes of the USA, we get an unclean feed full of their own coverage logos/graphics, like the US golf coverage which even cleaned up still has NBC/CBS logos, some trailers for their shows etc.

Even simple things such as even Sue Barker at Wimbledon holding a non-branded mic, but the Oz/US open have the interviewer with a microphone plastered with the respective channel.

Sky Sports is reverting to the old channel formula from mid-July thank goodness. This means that Sky Sports 1 will be 401, 2 on 402 etc with SSN moving to 406.

Nick Mullins and Jim Courier commentating on the men's French Open final.

Shame Mullins's diary is filled with so much other stuff because he's really good at tennis commentary as well.

They still have it, they didn't show it live today due to the Sweden v Wales international football friendly but they're showing the two games overnight

Was slightly surprised to see Johnnie Hammond tweet this morning that he's in New Zealand currently.

I guess that means he'll be on New Zealand/Wales, Harrison on Australia/England and Mark Robson on South Africa/Ireland
