Thanks for the heads up, Guy. Good to see the footage of Tom, but didn't the BBC SPotY at that time
seem to be head and shoulders above today? Bobby Moore, Henry Cooper, Mary Peters, Jackie Stewart...
...or is it just my age???

Regards! Stephen

If it's your age then you must be old because I'm 50 and think Paula Radcliffe, Ellen MacArthur,
Nicole Cooke and the whole England rugby team, to name a few, are fine sportspersons.
