Winter Olympics 2026 presenters on BBC and TNT Sports: Meet the pundits and commentators
Meet the presenters, experts and commentators set to guide you through the action at the Winter Olympics in 2026.
As expected, the Winter Olympics has flown by, with the closing ceremony due to air tonight after 16 days of world-class sport.
BBC Two will broadcast the farewell from Milano Cortina at 7pm tonight, but the afternoon still has some treats in store for anyone who's been keeping track of the action so far.
Veteran sports broadcaster Claire Balding has been one of four presenters leading the BBC's Winter Olympics coverage – but the BBC isn't the only broadcaster showing the Games.
Following on from Paris 2024, TNT Sports and discovery+ are the primary broadcaster. They will have live coverage of every moment across all of the Winter Olympics events, totalling more than 850 hours of action from the Games in Italy.

TNT Sports 2 will be completely dedicated to Milano Cortina 2026, with 24/7 coverage, and viewers will also have the flexibility to pick what they want from a selection of live event feeds.
The BBC's coverage is a little more condensed but the broadcaster will still have more than 450 hours of free-to-watch action, including two live feeds running from morning to night.
Wherever you are watching, there will be a wealth of presenters, experts, reporters, commentators, and pundits to talk you through every twist and turn.
RadioTimes.com brings you the cast of Winter Olympics 2026 presenters and commentators working across the BBC and discovery+.
