The day the county cricket fixtures are revealed each winter,
hoteliers in Scarborough get ready for their phones to melt. The
migration of cricket fans each August to the North Yorkshire coast
has yet to feature in a nature documentary but county cricket by
the seaside has been a Yorkshire institution since 1876. Be
transported to one of Yorkshire's finest sporting amphitheatres.
Enjoy tales from the game and town that will surprise and delight,
like the time the PA system picked up a funeral during play or when
Derek Randall gave Sarfraz Nawaz a wire rubbish bin to aid his
ability to field. There are interviews with fans, players and
coaches past and present and those who have been coming to
Scarborough for up to 50 years. Read Geoffrey Boycott's last
innings for Yorkshire in his own words, Ken Rutherford's 317 in a
day recalled by the man himself and Jason Gillespie on his
favourite Festival memories. John Fuller travels to the coastal
town to find the characters and stories, watch Yorkshire in action
and tap into Scarborough's enduring appeal.
