22:39 #howzat was a really good drama. Well scripted and acted. The dramatic license with facts and events can be totally forgiven. #
22:27 @angelofwrath63 well there was also a tragedy at Hillsborough that changed crowd control at sporting events forever. #howzat #
22:22 There's no way that Packer or anyone would get away with opening the gates like that these days. #howzat #
22:18 pity that the SCG floodlights don't actually light up as fast as that. #howzat #
22:15 Sam Kekovich in the Macca's ad during the break looks and sounds scarily like KFBP in #howzat #
22:05 "and you're up against the best you know / this is Supertest you know" Ah yes they don't write couplets like that any more. #howzat #
22:03 The birth of "Cmon Aussie Cmon" is being drowned out by stock dramatic music. #irony #howzat #
21:39 and the actor playing Andy Roberts has modeled his bowling action off Michael Holding. #howzat #nitpickingnow #
21:37 I'm sorry, but that is not Dennis Lillee's bowling action. Nothing like it. #howzat #
21:30 the Richie Benaud commentary is too verbose for Richie and sounds too much like Alan Jones. #howzat #
21:28 Dennis Lillee's bowling action in #howzat is a pale shadow of the real thing. And Tony Greig's run-up lacks the exaggerated bounce. #
21:26 The biggest suspense for me about episode 2 of #Howzat is whether we actually get to see Braddles or not #
21:06 except they mucked up the "Nutra Grain's a great start if you have to eat and run" line. Not South African enough. #howzat #
21:05 wohoo! they're re-enacted the Nutra Grain ad! #howzat #
21:04 "what do you mean 'If it doesn't rain'? This is Melbourne!" #howzat #
20:59 Gary Sweet in the Househusbands ads. He should be on screen playing Braddles in #howzat. #
20:57 "What is this, cricket or TV?" What a silly question. #howzat #
20:41 waiting patiently for #howzat ep2 to start reminds me that I don't think I've watched a full hour of #60minutes since Paul Lyneham was alive #
