World Cup Brush Up with Danny Baker

Anyone watch this on BBC Four last night? An absolute treat over 60 minutes with Baker on top form. Reminded myself of a cross between Own Goals and Gaffs/Fantasy Football with Skinner and Baddiel.

I did. Thought it was excellent. Well worth a watch.

Proper Danny Baker being proper funny

Very good. Was impressed with Peter Shilton's fitness routine, I wonder how many players back in the late 60s put that much effort in. Indeed jumping forward to the 80s, I can't imagine Neville Southall training like that (or being interviewed in the shower)

Jimmy greaves weather rant was legendary. Daybreak take note

Henry Irving

The point about non-bland panels was well made

Afternoon Delight

Baker's Brushing up series has been highly entertaining, last night's being a fine example. The row between John Bond and Cloughie was class!

So far the BBC's build up coverage has been really good. The stuff being produced for their website is really insightful and actually looks at the game in detail with a level of analysis that doesn't feel like it's aimed at the lowest common denominator. I really hope this standard is maintained for the tournament itself.
