    Nothing new (as expected) but a nice warm-up and I enjoyed it. Maybe one for Frenchfighter to miss.

    Repeated at 11.55 tonight, and again 9.50 tomorrow morning for anyone that cares.

    A nice retrospective. I wonder if in years to come if Brits will take that win for granted and forget what an embarrassment of riches it was.

    I enjoyed it. I won't reopen the can of worms I've opened multiple times since last year :wink:

    Was funny, just finished reading Ned Boulton's book. In it he describes the voices of Phil & Paul as the 'sound of the Summer' and I think that's a really apt description,

    I feel sorry for people who don't 'get' the Tour #emotional #goosebumps

    So true. It will be ITV4 for .e today. It's the equivalent of putting on the Perry Como Christmas hits album on the 25th December. It's just got to be done,

    It was still exciting, even though I saw it all in real time last year.

    Shame Brad wont be there this year, his interviews were a breath of fresh air after the usual media speak tosh on offer with past winners.
