Soundbyte 2
Soundbyte: | I've said I'll stand for a full second term [as Prime Minister].
But I think after that it will be time for new leadership. Terms are like Shredded Wheat - two are wonderful but three might just be too many. |

Said What?: | Political pundits have already started asking 'who will be the next Conservative leader?' after Cameron set a shelf life on his Prime Ministerial ambitions. |

Soundbyte 3
Soundbyte: | I've lost words to describe how England played. That was pathetic. It was always going to happen but there's a way to lose. What really disappointed me was when England won at The Oval, everyone was out there - the players, the backroom team. When you lose, you lose as one. Not one of the backroom team was out there today. |

Soundbyte 4
Soundbyte: | The atmosphere during the last hour in Brisbane was as hostile as I have experienced.
I have absolutely no problem about any of what the Australians were doing on the field, I probably dish it out more than most in the field, so I generally get it back more than most. I expect it and accept it. |

Said What?: | The England bowler talking about sledging after the first test against Australia... |

Soundbyte: | We've one man to thank for tonight's result and that's Gareth Bale. He's the difference and his wonder goals are continuing.
I can't say I've ever seen anyone score so many in such a short time. I think that's the best of the lot, and there's not a lot you can do about it at that stage of the game. |

Said What?: | The West Ham manager on how they ended up losing a Premiership match to Tottenham Hotspur |
Date: | Tue, Feb 26th 2013 |
Soundbyte 6
Soundbyte: | It's unthinkable that someone earning four times more than the Prime Minister has not got ideas for the shake-up of the sport.
The LTA is one of the wealthiest sporting organisations in the country and it's my honest and genuine opinion that they are useless. |

About: | the Lawn Tennis Association |
Topic: | Sports Funding |
Said What?: | The Labour politician talking about the wealthy sporting organisation, the LTA, and the £640,000 salary chief executive Roger Draper receives... |

Soundbyte 7
Soundbyte: | I'm really proud for the boy. That was a real test of a champion for me. I love watching tennis. It was more nerve-wracking than a Premier League match. I'm usually in control of my own situation but I wasn't in control tonight. |
Said by: | Sir Alex Ferguson |
About: | Andy Murray |
Topic: | Tennis |
Said What?: | Fellow Scot, and Manchester United manager, on Murray becoming the first Brit to win a Grand Slam title for 76 years |

Soundbyte 8
Soundbyte: | They tend to deal in caricatures ... it takes something that has a tiny kernel of truth in it, perhaps, and stretches it far beyond where it can honestly go. |
Said by: | John Major |
About: | The Press |
Topic: | Leveson Inquiry |
Said What?: | Former Tory Prime Minister John Major on the accuracy of some press reporting... |
Date: | Tue, Jun 12th 2012 |
Soundbyte 9
Soundbyte: | It's a great privilege to be involved. I can't quite believe people have actually turned up, I thought I would be just be carrying it around, waving to the ducks. |
Said by: | Matt Smith |
Topic: | Olympics |
Said What?: | The current Doctor Who on the fact that lots of people turned up to watch the Olympic torch relay between Cardiff and Swansea... |
Date: | Sat, May 26th 2012 |
Soundbyte 10
Soundbyte: | These boys can be regarded as being as successful as the 1970s side - three Grand Slams since 2005 is fantastic. I think there was a mental and physical turning point in the World Cup and they have built on it. |
