''Fighting Talk'' is a topical sports show broadcast on BBC Radio 5 Live during the English football season. Its first series was broadcast in October 2003, presented by Johnny Vaughan. The second series was presented by Christian O'Connell. The longest-serving presenter has been Colin Murray, who took charge between 2006 and 2013. The show currently has two presenters (Josh Widdicombe and Georgie Thompson) who each take charge of proceedings when available. The show is broadcast on Saturday mornings for an hour between 1100 and 1200. The programme's twelfth series began on 16 August 2014. It is based on the ESPN Show ''Around The Horn''. The show won a second Gold Sony Radio Academy Award in the sports programme category in 2011. Judges paid tribute to the old-fashioned music hall style of the show and Martin Kelner's many anecdotes. ==Format== Either Widdicombe or Thompson (or a stand-in host) chair the show where four guest pundits are invited to expound in turn, preferably with wit and knowledge, their views and opinions on a series of topical sporting events. Most sports are thrown into the fray but there is a strong emphasis on English top-flight football and other sports covered by the British news media. The penultimate discussion topic on the show is known as 'Any Other Business' (AOB) where the guests are given the opportunity to talk about anything they wish, and encouraged to comment on topics or issues that have irked, annoyed or incensed them in past week, regardless of relevance to sport. There have been several notable AOBs; a particularly good example of wit and rant was Steve Bunce's recollections of an interrupted stay at a London hotel. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fighting Talk」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
