The Commentators say it as they see it – all the world as sport.
Once stalwarts of the radio, whose voices brought major sporting events into the nation’s living rooms, The Commentators have fallen from favour. Now, they eke out a living wherever they can find work. They bring to their marathon commentaries of everyday life the same unquenchable enthusiasm they once applied to the greatest sporting contests.
An improvised walkabout performance (unless they’re sat down) in which two sports commentators describe everyday life in too much detail. It is professional people watching, it is CCTV for the radio, it is a public service – of sorts.
