The Words of Cricket...

on BBC Two England

Spoken by Leslie Crowther and Eric Sykes

Two extracts from the current BBC2 Sunday Cricket series in which the famous members of the Lord's Taverners interpret the great wealth of cricket literature. Leslie Crowther reads a selection from the incomparable writings that came from the pen of R.C. Robertson-Glasgow, while Eric Sykes revels in cricket's preoccupation with initials as described in Herbert Farjeon's Cricket Bag.
