Beautiful story and interview.

Got his autograph at a lifestyle type expo in Birmingham when I was a kid. To be honest, it was under instruction of my parents . I had no idea who he was.🤷‍♂️

8:19 a man that takes TNT on a round world trip on a yatch to scare off whales is more prepared than the master Scouts Akela.

I bet children today don’t get intelligent tv programs like this made for them. The one thing I have noticed the most about watching the BBC archive channel is the decline in the quality. This is no doubt why the public are demanding to stop the licensing system.

£120,000 in 1974 equates to about £1,250,000 in today's money, not that you asked...
