1976: the year of the Olympic Games. At the Winter Olympics in Innsbruck John Curry won the gold medal in the men's figure skating event. In Montreal David Wilkie won gold and silver in the swimming pool. Britain's modern pentathletes and yachtsman Reg White also won gold medals for
Britain. Nadia Comaneci was the perfect gymnast. Lasse Viren proved himself one of the greatest athletes of all time.
Motor Racing: James Hunt took the World Championship from Niki Lauda in the last Grand Prix of the most controversial season in the history of the sport.
Cricket: The West Indies revelled in the Caribbean conditions they found here this summer.
Horse Racing: gallant Red Rum just failed to become the first horse to win three Grand Nationals.
Motor Cycling: Barry Sheene won the World 500cc title.
1976 produced not only the drought, but great sporting occasions. Bjorn Borg won his first Wimbledon title: Johnny Miller won the British Open by six strokes; Peter Collins won the World Individual Speedway title; Muhammad Ali gained the most controversial victory of his career.

The Evening Star
This winter Venus is a brilliant object in the evening sky. It is very like the Earth in size and mass, and until the Space Age it was thought to be capable of supporting life in some form. Nowadays we know that Venus is a hostile world, but there are still many questions to be answered.
Patrick Moore talks about this strange planet, and describes the latest studies which confirm that Venus has a heavily cratered surface.
