  1. From RBM:

    Tomorrow night, (Thursday 11th), at 7pm on BBC One, the programme 'Simply the Best' contains a
    section about the 60's British cycling star Tommy Simpson, (Tommy was the BBC's Sports Personality
    of the Year in 1965). Some of the footage hasn't been seen since the 1960's. Guy

    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.
