About this episode
It's Story Time, our weekly walk through cricket history. This week, why are there so many allegedly famous people in the UK who nobody else has ever heard of? We get into the hosting of niche BBC quiz shows. There’s a reason. Also this week, the synchrony between spinners and keepers, wildly incorrect stats, and the coolest before the coolest was the coolest. Give us the specs!
