Reporter Paul Heiney
Keith Rawlinson is a schoolmaster in Burnley - but he has always longed to be a professional wrestler. Now "The Big Time" gives him the chance. It takes three months of strict training and body building during which Keith is advised by some of the biggest names in wrestling including Kent Walton, Big Daddy and World Lightweight Champion, Johnny Saint. His big moment is a match - in an all-star bill at the most glamorous wrestling venue in the country - London's Royal Albert Hall.
