Who are they? They are so natural and fun to listen to.

Wasn't Jenny great!

One of them is Ed Leigh, the BBC Sport snowboarding and freestyle skiing commentator...

And the other is Tim Warwood.

Who was the female? I think her name was Amy.

2010 slider gold medallist Amy Williams.

I loved them and every minute of the snowboarding. We had two girls in the event but the first one didn't quite make the final. I thought she sat in with them and commentated as she knew all the girls and the jumps. She was called Aimee Fuller.

Fun to watch,fun to listen to: it makes one wonder what would be if they were in government!!

I now see that the BBC has had to apologise for them. Not the normal kind if commentating apparently. I thought they were young, fresh and right for the sport.

one said something which an Aber posted on, as the comment seemed rather vulgar about one of the women snowboarders.

They did cheer when a snowboarding opponent fell. Not particularly professional, but I'm enjoying it.

I thought I had a very different opinion and then discovered I wasn't alone...

Commentators are never impartial though. In football, they get excited for their own side. But some of those comments on the other thread are quite dodgy for any profession!
