A female news anchor who, the day after it was supposed to have snowed and didn't, turned to the weatherman and asked, "So Bob, where's that eight inches you promised me last night?"

Gemmill 47504 Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 11. Michael Buerk on watching Phillipa Forrester cuddle up to a male astronomer for warmth during BBC1's UKeclipse coverage remarked: "They seem cold out there, they're rubbing each other and he's only come in his shorts."

Guest alex Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 The bowler's Holding, the Batsman's Willey And the Brian Johnson one with "Botham struggling to get his leg over" or similar! Quality moment that. "He couldn't quite get his leg over" I think it was. Another magic one from Johnners was "There's Neil Harvey standing at leg slip with his legs wide apart, waiting for a tickle." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quality moment that. "He couldn't quite get his leg over" I think it was. Another magic one from Johnners was "There's Neil Harvey standing at leg slip with his legs wide apart, waiting for a tickle." That's the other one i was trying to think of! I've got all the "Colemanballs" books taken from Private Eye with all the stupid things commentators, news readers and anyone else on tv, radio or anywhere in the media have said and they are class!

Guest alex Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 (edited) There's some class Murray Walker ones. I'll try and find some. Edit: 20. "And the first three cars are all Escorts, which isn't surprising as this is an all-Escort race." 19. "That's history. I say history because it happened in the past." 18. Monaco 1981: (Water is pouring onto the track in the tunnel) "...and that could be, to put it very mildly indeed, suicidally dangerous." 17. "You might not think that's cricket. And it's not, it's motor racing." 16. "Here at Brands Hatch, Will Gollop has a clear lead over Will Gollop." 15. "I should imagine that the conditions in the cockpit are unimaginable!" 14. From the Monaco Grand Prix qualifying session in 2001: "And the session will start in 3... 8... 9... 0!" 13. "A sad ending, albeit a happy one." 12. "Two laps to go, then the action will begin. Unless this is the action, which it is." 11. "The atmosphere is so tense you could cut it with a cricket stump." 10. " ... and Edson Arantes di Nascimento, commonly known to us as Pele hands the award to Damon Hill, commonly known to us as... um... Damon... Hill." 9. "Either the car is stationary or it's on the move." 8. "It's not quite a curve, it's a straight actually." 7. "And there's the man in the green flag!" 6. "Rene Arnoux is coming into the pits... let's stop the startwatch." 5. "Even in five years' time, he (Coulthard) will still be four years younger than Damon Hill." 4. "And the first five places are filled by five different cars." 3. "There is nothing wrong with the car except that it is on fire." 2. "We're watching Ralf Schumacher... Son, of course, of double world champion Michael Schumacher." 1. "... and here comes Damon Hill in the Williams... this car is absolutely unique... except for the one behind it... which is exactly the same."
