Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2014 Presents Blofeld and Baxter's MEMORIES OF TEST MATCH SPECIAL, Beg. Today

By:

Back by popular demand, even more untold stories from behind the scenes at TMS will be revealed in Blofeld and Baxter's MEMORIES OF TEST MATCH SPECIAL as part of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2014.

The festival will be held at Pleasance Queen Dome (Venue 23) from today, 30th July to 25th August, 2014 at 4.20pm (5.20pm). For more information call the box office at 0131 556 6550 or visit www.pleasance.co.uk or www.edfringe.co.uk.

The Daily Mail said, "Henry Blofeld and former test match special radio producer Peter Baxter tell some terrific tales."

Following the success of their show at last year's Edinburgh Festival Fringe and their recent UK Tour, Henry Blofeld and Peter Baxter cordially invite you to join them once again on a trip down memory lane to discover even more fascinating untold stories from the Test Match Special commentary box and beyond.

Hear tall tales from across the globe with exclusive behind-the-scenes adventures about the characters that make TMS so special and discover the extraordinary escapades of players both on and off the pitch.

Alan Davies called the event "a memorable evening with a faint whiff of linseed oil about it."

Fresh from Australia and brand new for 2014 get the 'direct from the booth' insights on the Ashes plus all the latest on the resulting and continuing turmoil in English cricket.

Henry 'My Dear Old Thing' Blofeld is one of Britain's most loved broadcasters and a bastion of the cricketing community. He is as notorious for his hilarious observations as he is for his astute cricket commentary.

Peter Baxter was the brain behind TMS for over 34 years; the man tasked with the unenviable position of corralling Henry and his cohorts around the world.

Together they offer a hilariously entertaining show for both cricket and non-cricket lovers alike.

For the first time in the history of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Henry and Peter will be hosting a Critics v Talent Cricket Match to be held on Edinburgh's famous Meadows on Tuesday 12th August from 11.00am to 2.00pm.
