Bee Gees and bombers at Lord's 8:12pm on 09 Sep 2009 Why is the ball-by-ball commentary from Southampton on Five Live tonight being interrupted by trailers for BBC television programmes every hour? It's profoundly annoying!
Flintoff a very English hero 2:47pm on 24 Aug 2009 Thanks for the memories, Fred. A genuine folk hero.
TMS ready for magical Ashes 1:21pm on 07 Jul 2009 For what it's worth, I enjoy Arlo's contributions to TMS. He brings a distinctive energy to the proceedings.
England just want to play 08:37am on 22 Mar 2009 Well done England!
Attenborough on Darwin 1:20pm on 02 Feb 2009 An additional point - why do modern whales have vestigial hind limb bones? Could it be because they evolved from land-dwelling ancestors?
Attenborough on Darwin 1:19pm on 02 Feb 2009 Djbennet - Oxygen is not a prerequisite for life. I suggest you read up on anaerobic respiration (i.e. respiratory pathways that do not use oxygen). Many molecules can act as terminal electron acceptors in prokaryotic respiratory pathways, and this is very common in many bacterial species.

Cyanobacterial photosynthesis was responsible for oxygenating the atmosphere of the early Earth, allowing the development of eukaryotic cells some 2 billion years ago.
Bearders made scoring an art form 12:34pm on 31 Jan 2009 The magical thing about TMS is how it unites millions of people all over world due to their simple love of the game of cricket.

Many of us have spend countless hours listening over the years (or even decades), and as such the contributors to the programme become part of our extended family. They're our friends, on the radio. And their loss is felt as keenly. TMS is a rare and precious thing. Long may it continue.
Bill Frindall (1939-2009) 4:27pm on 30 Jan 2009 What terribly sad news. Farewell Bearders.

My sincere condolences to his family, colleagues and friends.
TMS team heads for the sun 4:03pm on 30 Jan 2009 Sad news about Bill.

My condolences to his friends and family.
Hugely respected, much admired... but loved? 11:07am on 14 Jan 2009 It's not about winning or losing, it's about how you play the game.

(although saying that, as an Englishman I take a certain pride in how we stuffed the Aussies at the Olympics)
