The Contact Book is a chat show like no other. Craig Doyle interviews sporting legends about their lives and careers.
As he navigates their highs and lows, he has access to each guest’s contact book and calls up people who have lived through those experiences with them. Craig’s chats with his guests are witty, engaging and enlightening – and while he hears their versions of the stories, he also gets the real inside stories from people who know and love them best. Those with whom they grew up, who trained and played with them and those whose lives they crossed in the sporting world and beyond.
While the guests give access to their contacts they don’t always know exactly who is going to pop up during their interview and what stories they are going to tell. The Contact Book with Craig Doyle is a great listen as we get the insight into these sporting legends and their stories – from all sides.

In this episode of The Contact Book, “The Raging Potato” AKA Irish rugby legend Keith Wood hands over his phone to Craig who calls upon an all-star list to join in with the conversation. Wood and his Lions’ Captain Martin Johnson dissect that history-making Lions winning test series against the Springboks in 1997 in what Craig describes simply as “Rugby Porn”! His Ireland teammate David Wallace gives the inside story on Woody as Ireland captain. Ugo Moyne explains how he and Keith struck up a long-lasting bromance and reveals who has the biggest balls in rugby. Other shocking secrets that emerge include how Woody played bodyguard for Formula 1’s Eddie Jordan and how he got locked into 10 Downing Street. There is mention of the belly button fetish again, thankfully Mrs Wood, Nicolla is on hand to set the record straight. This bumper edition of The Contact Book is the last in the series and provides a truly unique insight into the life and career and of one of the best rugby players of all time, as told by some of the world’s greatest rugby players.
