And on the 5th Day of Christmas, my true love (Berlino) gave to me - FIVE DEFINING MOMENTS! Yes, we couldn't afford 5 gold rings, so we've nabbed the idea from @ChrisBrownSport's podcast 'My Defining Moments' to review the 2021 season. Each of us chose a defining moment from the sprints, jumps, throws, & distances, plus a wildcard moment. Find out who made Carol cry the most, what made Ceri react like an Edvard Munch painting and hear Russia's 2022 Eurovision entry! So once you've Decked The Halls with boughs of Holly Bradshaw, grab yourself a mulled wine and listen to 100 minutes of 2021's best bits. Merry Christmas!
