Billy on the Box: Never mind touchdowns Sky wins it hands down
Friday, 10 February 2012
Who would have thought that the names Manning and Madonna would ever share top
of the bill? Well apart from that night at the Embassy Club in Manchester
when there was a real true blue evening they still talk about.

Billy on the Box: Never mind tax, it’s Mario’s stamp duty that’s overdue
Friday, 27 January 2012
I'll be honest, I’ve never really been sure what Skype is and only recently was I taken to one side and told it’s something to do with phoning people and not something to expect between 1.00 and 6.00pm on certain Sundays.
Billy on the Box: A Knight an elephant wouldn’t forget
Friday, 27 January 2012
I have to hold my hands up and admit that the prospect of the start of the
African Cup of Nations had me as thrilled as Michael Caine standing at the
top of Rorke’s Drift wearing an ‘I hate Zulus’ T-shirt, but I couldn’t have
been more wrong.

Billy on the Box: It’s time Final Score had a late kick-off
Friday, 20 January 2012
Contrary to popular belief down Ormeau Avenue way, I don’t spend every waking
hour sticking pins into a wee doll in the shape of Broadcasting House.

Billy on the Box: Big Pat’s gone but no time to cry Wolfie
Friday, 13 January 2012
It was tragic news from Albert Square regarding the untimely demise of Pat
Butcher but how nice of the BDO World Darts Championship (or the not very
good one, as it’s better known) to pay its own personal tribute to
Eastenders’ femme fatale.

Billy on the Box: Santa’s back but it’s Roy who is Keane to deliver
Thursday, 12 January 2012
And to think some people say there’s no Santa Claus. My letter to Lapland,
thankfully not mixed up this year with the one I sent to Lapdancingland,
which is still being investigated, asked the big man with the white hair in
the red suit if he could bring back the wee man with the orange hair in the
red shirt.

TV sport’s winners and losers from 2011
Thursday, 29 December 2011
It has been another bumper year for sport on the old gogglebox and with that
in mind, plus the fact that there’s very little on this week and I have my

follow everyone else and provide a look back at the past 12 months.

Billy on the Box: Ben's big win in nick of time for Olympics
Friday, 23 December 2011
I'm nothing if not up for a challenge so it was with a degree of thran-ness
that I turned my back on Sky’s insistence that Sunday’s football schedule
was a Christmas Cracker to find my novelty and silly hats elsewhere — with
Clare Balding.

Billy on the Box: There’s just not enough name calling at the darts
Friday, 23 December 2011
I am a darter of a certain vintage, brought up in an era when lumbering giants
ruled the earth and the nickname was the preserve of only the special few.

Billy on the Box: Euro 2012 quick on the draw? You must be kidding
Thursday, 8 December 2011
If the Euro 2012 finals are even a smidgen as exciting as the draw for the
main event then we’re in for one zany bumper summer of fun.

Billy on the Box: It’s a cold house for talented British ladies
Thursday, 8 December 2011
You can’t have failed to notice the change in the air this week but even I was
slightly taken aback to walk into the office and find Eddie ‘The Eagle’

Billy on the Box: Final straw for Savage and Sidebottom
Thursday, 8 December 2011
The words ‘Savage’ and ‘Sidebottom’ really shouldn’t sit comfortably in any
sentence but then again Saturday’s night’s viewing was as awkward as going
lingerie shopping with your granny.

Thursday, 1 December 2011
You knew it was going to be one of those days on Formula One when the first
thing Sebastian Vettel promised to do after the Brazilian Grand Prix was
have a close shave. Please, stop sniggering at the back.

So it was Roger against Wilfried in the final of the Beano Championships at
the O2 Arena on Sunday, and against all odds it turned out to be a cracker
of a final.

Billy on the Box: No more Power to our elbow
Thursday, 24 November 2011
