Johnners Cricketing Gaffes, Giggles And Cakes

Brian Johnston, known to everyone as Johnners, was as well known for his on-air gaffes as for his Test Match Special commentaries. Here are his most famous and funniest cricketing mishaps, which have been chosen by his son, Barry. Among Johnners’ laugh-out-loud clangers are ‘joined by the Balls,’ ‘sitting on a shooting stick,’ and a streaker’s ‘cheeky performance. . . waving her flag and other things’. There’s also Mr Titt’s letter. . . More giggles from the archives include Johnners’ notorious Ashes comedy song, his appearances on Quote, Unquote and Trivia Test Match, plus Fawlty Towers insights from John Cleese. From leg-pulling to leg-overs, inflatable parrots, to chocolate cake, this special recording is not just for cricket lovers, it’s for anyone who loves a laugh!
