Someone has already said but the commentators are really annoying

Turner just missed out on the 110m hurdles, but the commentator said he got a good start. I thought he hadn't (as a layman) and when interviewed at the end, by the totally annoying Phil Jones, said he got a "rubbish start".

I saw it. Why didn't the commentator?

Are we going to get down from Country to County to town and then Street?

No-one on my street has won a medal, so we're going to sack the head of the Acacia Avenue* Olympic Committee.
That said, there's no pillar box on our street, so it'd have to go on Cross Lane* anyway.

* - street names changed to protect... well, me
