Introduced by Harry Carpenter
The top events, personalities and stories in sport at home and overseas.

Tonight:
International Athletics
from RAF Cosford
Great Britain v. German Democratic Republic
A home win is unlikely against the nation which won 29 Olympic medals in track and field in Moscow last summer, but a strong British team has been selected including Sebastian Coe, Verona Elder, Mark Holtom and Brian Hooper.
Organised by BAAB in conjunction with Philips Industries.

The World Four-Man Bobsleigh Championship
from Cortina
It's 15 years since the last World Championship here ended in tragedy when the West German bob left the run at 80 mph. This year the East Germans start favourites for the title but the Swiss are again expected to challenge strongly.
