BBC Grandstand 30 years old

Grandstand at 30 but a unique occasion to have interviews with some of the original cast

Des Lynam is best presenter we ever had. God bless him.

[@sidneygreen9120]

That boy missing the rugby 🏉 kick between the posts breaks my heart everytime i see it 😮😢

[@royprice4639]

Bring back Grandstand.

[@markelsey5489]

Wonderful, wonderful memories!

[@dominewimbury2039]

Grandstand was brilliant. Every Saturday at my grandparents house. I would be playing with my toys on the living room floor but me and Nanny had to be a bit quieter when the pools news come on lol. If this was screened in October 1988, my Nanny would only have had another two months to live sadly. We didn't know it though. Grandad carried on watching the pools news and I carried on playing with my toys, with my aunties instead. Grandstand was Saturday

Ken Wolstenholme, Eddie Waring, Cliff Morgan, Michael O Hehir, Richie Benaud, Jim Laker, David Coleman, Ron Pickering, Henry Longhurst, Peter Alliss, John Motson, Barry Davies, Harry Carpenter, Peter O'Sullievan, Len Martin, Des Lynam - legends all, and all thanks to Grandstand. Boy could we ever need it right now - instead of this Sky Sports nonsense.

Murray walker too

Edward Burek your so right! Today the ‘media darlings’ who care more about their image are a bunch of amateurs at best!

[@GILLY56ify]

The youngsters of today won't have heard of most of the commentators named above but each in their own sport was exceptional ... superior to every one of the presenters of today on Sky & the like ... a great shame

[@BradRae188]

Thanks for the upload sir

[@npm2457]

It might be a 21 min clip but, with all the rewinding, it took me almost an hour to watch. Brilliant stuff!!

[@BradRae188]

“Where were the Germans... and frankly who cares” 😂 Classic Barry Davies

[@sidneygreen9120]

Absolutely fantastic stuff 👋

[@martynb901]

Ah, the days when presenters and commentators were chosen on talent alone rather than because they ticked the right boxes.

[@patrickburford6871]

All other sports broadcasters all need to pay homage & an ode to benchmark to Grandstand.

[@garrysimpson1395]

Today we have Alex Scott. Nuff said.

[@garrysimpson1395]

Barry Davies later regerted the Germarn commentry but we will forgive him.A great commentator.

[@sidneygreen9120]

It was a classic comment 👍

[@raphaelrau1728]

Sensational Eddie Waring! RIP. You where the best! Much loved and much missed....and I prefer Football and Rugby Union to league! 😂😀👍🏻

[@garrysimpson1395]

Remember it all.

[@philmasters5277]

Such a shame this had to end.

The brilliant Nashwan winning the Autumn Stakes at Ascot in the closing titles. He would go on and win the following year's 2000 Guineas, Derby, Eclipse and King George.
