Chris Finnegan and David Burghley. Boxer
Chris Finnegan looks back on his golden day in Mexico in 1968, recalls his subsequent professional career, and talks candidly about how life has treated him badly since he retired from the ring.
There's also a portrait of the "Leaping Lord"
David Burghley , the 1928 400m hurdles gold medallist and life-long supporter of the Olympic movement. His inheritance offered him an easy life, but he dedicated his energy and passion to sport. The former Eton schoolboy's run around the Trinity Great Court at Cambridge inspired the unforgettable scene in the film Chariots of Fire.
He was the first non-American to win the 400m hurdles, after which he said: "The Americans are frightfully good losers."

Comedy spoof of Airport-type films, made by the Kentucky Fried Movie team, starring Robert Hays
Julie Hagerty Leslie Nielsen
This parody of disaster films combines an anthology of movie cliches with life-threatening situations from every classic disaster film: a war-hero pilot who's lost his nerve has to land a passenger plane because the pilots have food poisoning; the passenger list consists of the most bizarre assortment of people; and the ground controller has chosen this day to give up smoking ... and just about everything else.
So what's Airplane? Well, it's that big steel flying machine with wings.
Written and directed by Jim Abrahams , David Zucker and Jerry Zucker
