did'nt see this coming. Auntie has reclaimed the rights to show the GP's from 2009.

Will the chain and Murry walker be back?

Great news indeed,  no more advert's just at the wrong moment....  or every 5 minutes during the buildup....

Lets hope they don't take James Allen....

That's refreshing news. Lets just pray that they don't bring that 'Cock' James Allen with it.

Good news indeed... the adverts are infuriating.  Though, to be fair, in recent years they have provided considerably more interest than the processional racing.  Maybe this year will be better...

It would appear that The Cock has indeed finally been stopped.

Good news indeed.
I'm not a supporter of James Allan, but on the basis that Murray probably won't do more than the odd guest appearance, who do you think should/will do it?
That's a question for all the cock bashers :D
