[@sicox100]

Thanks for posting this. My dad is Geoff cox who won the year it was made. Think we've still got video of this but nothing to play it on so haven't watched it for years!

[@lewissmith3896]

So sorry to hear that.

Lovely to hear Brian Glover's distinctive voice again. Also lovely to see Bisley back then.

[@lewissmith3896]

Yeah.

[@boostedlss6450]

I love it, the presenter is the joke telling patron of the pub in An American Werewolf in London! Im fascinated by this event since recently learning of my great grandfather's participation and victory with the Canadian team, as well as a gold medal from Kolapore 1951 which I can't find any information on.

The woman at 29:10 is the most 1980s thing I've seen in a long while

[@gazchap]

It's me! I'm the little kid, aged 3, running down the steps of the English XX Club at 5:00 in. My Mum being the woman in the red dress that I'm galloping towards!
