1991 was the greatest relay race of my lifetime!!!

John Regis was build like a Toyota landcruiser. Strong and reliable.

[@stevebbuk]

I'd like to watch the whole athletics programme, if somebody could upload it and post the link.

[@aragorn1959]

John Regis 43.9!,,

[@thomasmckenzie4584]

Regis was a stud!! I always thought he was just a "4th runner" trying to hold his own. 43.9 is good enough to be a star on any relay team. Incredible! Especially for someone who looks like he plays middle linebacker for the Dallas Cowboys.

[@paulwilliams8389]

I always thought that Regis could have done something really special if he had moved up to 400m in the individual event.

[@karenrobinson129]

Brilliant

[@aaronkoeppe9057]

When the commentators would talk bad about regis "not being a 400m runner, called a comparative novice, inexperienced etc" and regis was a tank stepped up and would run mid 43- low 44's. Really makes the commentators look like real assholes.

[@timrobinson100]

being british is wonderful [ we always win

[@TheEulerID]

"The West Germans not out of the picture yet either"... Was the commentator watching the same race as I was? By the last 100 metres, the West Germans were most certainly out of the picture, metaphorically speaking, and almost literally in the TV picture.

[@DadgeCity]

He made a mistake

[@TheYorkMan]

If we’d had a (better) quality runner on the first leg, the team could have got around 2:56.5

[@nickywall872]

Jim Rosenthal and Steve Ovett commentating.

[@geourgiou]

yes with alan parry, with itv and the bbc both sharing the coverage back then.

[@uhegbu]

That is correct and also Peter Matthews, still commentating as of 2017.

[@Fatima502]

Not Jim Rosenthal, Nicky it was Alan Parry wuth Steve Ovett. With Peter Matthews the brilliant analyst.
