Programme about Graham Hill on at 9.00pm. The only guy to win an F1 World Championship, Indy 500 and Le Mans.

Followed by a documentary about land speed records.

All repeated at 00.30.

what a nice programme that was.

thought the family and friends seemed to be very Honest about him. makes a change from the usual "the man was a saint" type crap thats these programmes tend to favour.

some great old film footage as well. :P

I missed it unfortunately as I had to catch a very early flight & needed my beauty sleep :mrgreen:

No doubt it'll be repeated in the near future though.

I really enjoyed both programmes.

It was refreshing to hear people talk honestly including his family. Such a pity that he has been joined by a long list of sporting talent that have died in air accidents.

Yes the Graham Hill programme was refreshingly different and more up to date than previous ones .It clearly showed his great determination and his frustration when things werent going too well.One of the all time greats! As for the speed record programme I can remember there were pictures in every boys comic and magazine right through the sixties as those records were broken again and again.Great stuff.
