    My only criticism is that accents aren’t strong enough. More tractor and less of those silly city accents please. So excited for longer days and cricket.

    Five stars to the producer.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Das Dusseldorf Cricket-Stadion
Q: Is it fair to say that without Brian Close arriving at Taunton at the time he did, we probably wouldn't have seen the Ian Botham that we saw over the years?
Brian Close was a major part of the renaissance of Somerset and it was sad that they didn't win a trophy during his time.
Das Dusseldorf Cricket-Stadion
Q: What kind of prompted you to get back in with this biography?
I've had this yen to write this book for a very, very long time. And earlier this year, I thought, it's got to be done.
