They are really idiotic this year. The vast majority have no idea how to fill. Where is Huw Edwards when we need him? Or David Dimbleby? Those whose training includes detailed reams of research so that long periods where nothing is happening can be filled with fascinating facts or observations. Most of the commentators are just ex players who cannot string two words together but are slightly famous.

She's more of a presenter than a commentator. I think that Andrew Cottle is very good, as is Hazel Irvine. Michael Johnson is the John Mcenroe of Athletics, very knowledgeable, charismatic, and lots of wisdom, although he's more of a pundit. Denise Louise and Jessica Ennis Hill are pretty interchangeable with any other past athlete.
