Calypso Cricket

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

with Ian Wooldridge
In 1986 England's winter of discontent showed yet again the absolute world supremacy of West Indian cricket. Top sports writer Ian Wooldridge goes to its
Caribbean roots to discover why. Viv Richards , Gary Sobers , Clive Walcott ,
Everton Weekes and others tell their stories.
In Barbados and Antigua, Wooldridge looks for the youngsters who will succeed them. He asks how these tiny islands can produce such a stream of talent.
