Tailenders

Ahead of the Test Match Special replay of the iconic 2005 Ashes Test at Edgbaston, Greg, Jimmy, Felix and Mattchin look back at how cricket gripped the nation in the balmy summer of 2005.

Plus more poetry, General Cricketing Gladness and Ball Wax.

Greg, Jimmy, Felix and Mattchin hear listeners tales of cricketing joy in a ‘General Cricketing Gladness Special’.

Plus Jimmy reflects on when we might have some cricket this summer, ‘Go Wells’, the trials and tribulations of playing the Norwich Art Centre and a touch of poetry.

Following the debacle of Mattchin’s first Instagram Live Quiz, that didn’t go well, this is his follow-up which, in true Tailenders fashion, is neither live nor on Instagram.

Plus we have a new take on ‘GCS’, wedding updates and Felix explains why Tailenders are like dolphins.

Oh, and we have a very special guest but ’No Surprises’ for guessing who that is.

Following a weekend of Tailenders activity, Greg, Jimmy, Felix and Mattchin assemble to review the replay of Headingley, the ’Scorealong’ and Mattchin’s post match Instagram Quiz, which it's fair to say did not go well.

Warning: This podcast contains some strong(ish) language.

Greg, Jimmy, Felix and Mattchin are joined by TMS scorer Andy Zaltzman as they look to get ‘match fit’ for the upcoming ’score-along’.

Plus Jimmy relives the time he was most nervous during a Test Match and Felix creates a playlist for household chores #tailendersoftheworlduniteandtakehoover

Greg, Jimmy and Felix continue to broadcast ‘in isolation’ but this week they are joined by a new guest listener.

Plus Mattchin takes us on our ‘virtual’ holidays, a review of ’The Test’ - the new documentary series about the Aussie cricket team - and Felix has some explaining to do about last week’s ‘Isolation, Interactive Quiz’.

Mattchin is your quiz master for the first ever Tailenders Interactive Isolation Quiz. Rounds include Literature, Crusic and an unusual singing round. Go (stay) well.

No DPRs, no viking embraces and definitely no Dizzee fist bumps as Greg, Felix, Jimmy and Mattchin isolate themselves in various locations across the UK in order to record the latest Tailenders.

Expect the usual nonsense, plus a review of the Manchester show including a final update from scorer Katie, a new take on ‘Project Mobilisation’ plus an idea to really get Tailenders of the world to unite and takeover.

More nonsense from the live show in Manchester, including a surprise for Jimmy, GCS and a special listener reunion.

Tailenders of the world united and took over the Palace Theatre, Manchester, for a night of ’twaddly cricket chat’, stupid games, songs and the odd special guest. Contains mangoes, live shredding, batting jackets and Allan Lamb (sort of).
