Test Match Special: The Ashes - The 1st test
Commentators: Jonathan Agnew, Henry Blofeld, Simon Mann and Jim Maxwell Summarisers: Geoffrey Boycott, Michael Vaughan, Graeme Swann and Glenn McGrath Given that we now have two more recently retired and more famous English offspinners as part of the TMS team, I wonder how much we'll hear of Vic Marks this summer. Would be a shame if he's being phased out of the big games. |

I know I'll be committing sacrilidge for many on this thread, but if TMS want to phase anyone out, wish they'd look at Henry Blofeld. he's a lovely chap, and I get that the non-cricket lover who just tunes in probably likes his style, but as a cricket commentator, he's utterly hopeless. words in the wrong order, not having a clue whats going on or miss identifying players. TMS is a wonderful programme, but it is brought down when he's on. give him something in the lunch or tea intervals if they want to keep him but please move him away from commentary. gets tin hat out...

Thursday 16th to Monday 20th July - @TheOpen Radio
Richard Kaufman presented live coverage of The 144th Open Championship from the Old Course at St Andrews Commentators: Ron Jones, Matt Adams, Sue Thearle, Paul Eales, Richard Boxall, Gordon Brand Jr, Alison Walker, Carl Paulson, James Byrne and Alan Tait Interviewer: Rob Nothman (as BBC Radio 5 Live) @TheOpen Radio was available on 87.8FM as a restricted service licence station in the local area of the course, as well as through live audio streams on The Open's website and mobile app and on TuneIn. They also provided daily podcasts through The R&A's audioBoom page. I'm glad I held fire on posting these details over the weekend - with the weather pushing the championship into Monday, it meant @TheOpen used two quite different teams over the scheduled first four days and the final round. For most of the championship, we heard most of the same core team @TheOpen has used for many years - Richard Kaufman expertly working in the anchor role, with six main commentators out on the course. The main change from past years was that there was no Robert Lee, with him effectively being replaced by Sue Thearle - so we had three lead commentators in her, Jones and Adams with three summarisers in Eales, Boxall and Brand Jr. Alison Walker was also listed as (and tweeted about) being part of their coverage, but I didn't catch her involvement so I'm not sure how much of a role she had. We also heard cameo appearances in the studio with Richard from talkSPORT's Bob Bubka (who was covering The Open for them with Rupert Bell) and RTE Radio's Greg Allen. It was then all change on the final day, with many of @TheOpen's commentators having other commitments (I'm not sure if all had other events to attend or if some were drafted in by other broadcasters). Of their original team, only Kaufman, Jones and Adams remained, with them being joined former US player turned SiriusXM golf host Carl Paulson, local professional James Byrne and BBC Radio Scotland Golf Show presenter Alan Tait. For the latter stages of the final round, Jones and Paulson followed the Louis Oosthuizen and Paul Dunne group, Adams and Byrne were with Jason Day and Jordan Spieth, while Tait was out on the course switching from group to group including that of Marc Leishman and Padraig Harrington. With so many contenders, back in the studio Kaufman was doing as much commentary as anyone, following the early starting leaders such as Zach Johnson. All six were involved in their commentary on the Johnson, Oosthuizen and Leishman play-off. Great coverage once again by @TheOpen Radio, they have so many strong commentary voices and coped admirably with having to make a number of last minute changes going into the final day. With both BBC TV and Radio 5 Live starting their coverage in the afternoon on some days (notably the Monday), having @TheOpen Radio available as providing full and uninterrupted coverage throughout the championship was very welcome. I've said this before in other threads but I'll raise this prospect again here - with talkSPORT 2 launching next year, and having indicated they're open to broadcasting output from external sources (William Hill Sports Radio has been mentioned), they really should consider coming to an agreement to carry @TheOpen Radio's coverage, maybe with Bubka and Bell being permanent additions to the team in the process. talkSPORT held non-exclusive commentary rights to The Open for many years so I'm sure getting permission won't be an issue, and it would be great for this service to be available on a national DAB platform, particularly ahead of the TV rights moving to Sky Sports in 2017. |

As a footnote to the excellent BBC Radio county cricket coverage details that Connor consistently posts, I thought I would highlight this rather excellent and very helpful Twitter feed: https://twitter.com/TuneInLiveEvent
The clue as to what the feed consists of is in the name, as it aims to list the BBC Live Event streams each county cricket commentary is being broadcast on, which is particularly useful for people who listen to the matches via radio apps such as TuneIn. I'm not sure if the person who put that feed together is aware of our forum, if so I hope she won't mind me saying that she doesn't always get it right when trying to identify the commentators working for each service (having put together what I hope were a few comprehensive posts tracking a few matches in Connor's absence I can sympathise - it isn't always easy!), so I wouldn't always take those details as gospel but in terms of tracking down the streams it's invaluable for TuneIn users. It has saved me a lot of time having to cycle through the 20-odd Live Event channels to find the matches I want to listen to. |

Friday 24th July
BBC Wales Glamorgan v Gloucestershire - Ed Bevan & James Kirtley Rick O'Shea was presenting BBC Wales sport when it was raining. The full commentary team was Edward Bevan, Tony Cottey and Gareth Rees. James Kirtley wasn't involved in their coverage as far as I heard, he wasn't namechecked at the start or the end of the programme. |

I listened to a bit of this last night once it got underway, Rick O'Shea was also Radio Wales Sport's man on the boundary, where he was interviewing fielders while the game was in play!

5Live Boxing - Saturday 18th July
Martin Murray vs Mirzet Bajrektarevic & Scott Quigg vs Kiko Martinez (Sports Extra) Anthony Crolla vs Darleys Perez (5Live & Sports Extra) Commentary from Jonathan Overend & Tony Bellew Reports from Gary Flintoff First time I have heard Jonathan Overend commentating on professional boxing, he has presented in the past. I think he commented on one or two of Amir Khan's fights from the Athens 2004 Olympics. |

Tuesday 23rd June Cricket: T20 International England v New Zealand - Guy Swindells Saturday 27th and Sunday 28th June Formula E: London ePrix Races One and Two Battersea Park Street Circuit - Graham Courtney, with Ian Danter conducting interviews from the grid during Sunday's Weekend Sports Breakfast Monday 29th June to Sunday 12th July Tennis: Wimbledon 2015 All-England Club - Katy Murrells (first week - Mon-Wed, second week - Mon-Tue, Sat-Sun) and Bob Ballard (first week - Thurs-Sat, second week - Wed-Fri), with Ian Abrahams reporting from the grounds during the first few days Friday 3rd July Rugby League: Super League Leeds Rhinos v St Helens - Graham Courtney Sunday 5th July Formula 1: British Grand Prix Silverstone Circuit - Graham Courtney (also covered qualifying on the Saturday) Monday 6th to Sunday 26th July Cycling: Tour de France Stages 3-21 - Lisa O'Sullivan talkSPORT didn't cover the first two stages of the race - I guess Lisa mustn't have been around that weekend. Wednesday 8th to Saturday 11th July Cricket: First Ashes Test Match England v Australia - Jon Norman Thursday 9th to Sunday 12th July Golf: Scottish Open Gullane Golf Club - Phil Blacker (Thursday & Saturday) and Russell Hargreaves (Friday & Sunday) Sunday 12th July Rugby League: Super League Hull FC v Castleford Tigers - Graham Courtney Thursday 16th to Sunday 19th July Cricket: Second Ashes Test Match England v Australia - Jon Norman Thursday 16th to Monday 20th July Golf: The Open Championship 2015 St Andrews - Rupert Bell and Bob Bubka Friday 17th to Sunday 19th July Tennis: Davis Cup Great Britain v France - Andrew McKenna (Friday), Susan Spence (Saturday) and Elliot Cook (Sunday) talkSPORT's afternoon sports newsreaders doubled up as their Davis Cup reporters. Friday 17th July Rugby League: Super League Wigan Warriors v Widnes Vikings - Graham Courtney Sunday 19th to Sunday 26th July Darts: World Matchplay Winter Gardens, Blackpool - Dan Dawson Like with the opening weekend of the Tour de France, talkSPORT didn't carry Dan's updates from the first day of the World Matchplay. Saturday 25th July Horse Racing: King George VI Weekend Ascot Racecourse - Rupert Bell (commentary on the King George VI And Queen Elizabeth Stakes at 3.50pm) Athletics: Anniversary Games 2015 Olympic Stadium, London - Michael Weadock Sunday 26th July Formula 1: Hungarian Grand Prix Hungaroring - Graham Courtney (also covered qualifying on the Saturday) Tuesday 28th July to Saturday 1st August Horse Racing: Goodwood Festival Goodwood Racecourse - Rupert Bell Alan Brazil presented Tuesday and Wednesday's Sports Breakfast from Goodwood, with him being joined by Stuart Pearce from the course on Tuesday and then by Dominic Cork from Edgbaston for the cricket on Wednesday. Wednesday 29th to Friday 31st July Cricket: Third Ashes Test Match England v Australia - Jon Norman, with analysis from Dominic Cork on Wednesday and Thursday As mentioned above, Cork co-hosted both Wednesday and Thursday's Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast shows from Edgbaston. He then stuck around to provide punditry during Jon Norman's reports from the Test Match on both days, although he wasn't there on Friday. Jack Bannister's contributions to talkSPORT during The Ashes seem to be limited to being used as a phone guest before and after most days' play, which is a bit of a shame. |
