    Jamie Whitt is OK but he's too enthusiastic and opinionated at times and just ends up talking over or butting in when his collegues are talking.

    He butts in over James Hayden quite a lot on the BSB coverage I've noticed even when Haydens been asked a question or his opinion directly Whitham can't help but dive in on him mid sentence! :rolleyes:

    I like his sense of humour. I can let off some extra excitement , u could prob imagine I'm a little like that. I like Hayden too he seems well alright

    Love the combination of whitham and Jack Burnicle for BSB. I used to really like the old Eurosport combo for MotoGP of Moody, Ryder and Spalding. Don't like the BT Sport guy although Ryder is still co-commentating. And for F1 I think I actually prefer Martin Brundle over Murray Walker. At least Brundle tells it like it is and isn't afraid of a bit of controversy.

    Only thing about Whit and Parish at the TT is that they say the same every year.
    Same old cliches etc.
    I like Plater and Hayden co commentating.
    I like Whit and. Burnacle for BSB.
    And I liked Moody and Ryder.

    Hated that Charlie and Parish for Moto GP on BBC.
    And can't stand Hodge.

    Not an F1 fan, but Coultard was best whenever I saw it.

    Murry Walker was a classic for F1, can't stand Coulterd, which is why I watch F1 on sky ;)
    I like the MotoGP combo at the moment, including Hodge, and Whit is good for BSB

    I am just pleased that Charlie Cox and Steve Parish don't do MotoGP anymore :)

    Witham is ok but but does need to let others get a word in, toseland needs a personality, parish wasn't bad, Hodgson will get better as he gets used to doing it.

    Reckon they should get Dave Lamb commentating from come dine with me, that would be a laugh

    I quite like whitham as a co commentator. Agree on charlie cox - he was shit beyond belief and his stupid sayings 'ohhh he's had a nightmare in a bubble car'. Both parish and cocks turned out to be really annoying but having said that, at least I could watch the live rounds on BBC2 then!
