A lively jog through the British Sporting Calendar as we eavesdrop on some of the most memorable and fascinating events of the British at play. From marble games to water speed records, from fox hunting to ballooning and from cock fighting to the very British sport of...hopping, told entirely in the words of those who were there.
Performed by an outstanding company of award-winning actors including Dame Eileen Atkins, Cheryl Campbell, Nigel Davenport, Alex Jennings, Richard Johnson OBE, Hugh Laurie CBE, Michael Maloney, Geoffrey Palmer OBE, Michael Pennington, Prunella Scales CBE, Samuel West, John Wood CBE and full supporting cast.
Also available as part of The Gazette Box Set, a six-volume edition (Army, Navy, Sport, Sporting Pastimes, Travel at Home, Travel Abroad) creating a vivid portrait of British life through the centuries.
