sebsy Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 F***ing awesome series, F***ing awesome performance from England, f***ing superb coverage from C4 which will be sadly missed. Gotta say that they ended their last broadcast beautifully by playing the whole Mambo No 5 song with clips of all the greats who have appeared on the channel, the cartoon Benaud waving us all of and finally the "The End" caption from the Mambo video. A dignified and fitting end. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
