I guess you guys have already seen the programme, but it's just reached us here.
But what a good documentary with lots of old footage. Sure, Stirling Moss's commentry is a bit monotone, but interesting none the less. It's great to see spectators stood 5 yards from the track, Ken Tyrell walking around wearing his flat cap, and Jackie Stewart with his huge sunglasses. It all seems so much more casual. I remember my father taking us to Silverstone for a GP in the days before you needed a second mortgage to get a seat a mile from the track. And at the end we all walked across the track to the infield as the winners came back from their trip on the back of some car converted into a pickup.
