As an England teammate and TMS colleague I’ve admired Geoffrey Boycott’s work as a batsman and broadcaster
This is not an obituary. There is life after Test Match Special. Henry Blofeld, recently back from the Real Marigold Hotel, is proof of that, although the odds on Geoffrey Boycott following him on to that programme in the next series may be slim.
Geoffrey will no longer be a regular on TMS, which is hardly surprising in this summer of all summers. He is in his 80th year and even he recognises it is a good idea to shoulder arms to the pandemic.
