Season 17, Episode 3: Henry Blofeld, or Blowers, as he’s universally known, was a staple of cricket broadcasting in England for half a century. First calling internationals in the early 1970s, he was central to Test Match Special becoming a national institution as a much-loved voice in that famous commentary box. He narrated the game around the world until 2017 when he hung up his BBC mic. Having covered hundreds of Tests, Blowers is a man with thousands of yarns. The master storyteller joined Adam to share a few of those from his wonderful life in cricket.
