Actually thinking about it, ITV4 could be missing a trick here. Find another episode from the same week/different year, and put both of them out at from 3pm on a Saturday, and run a live 2009 score flash ticker running across the screen – at least then you would not be torn between staying with the archive stuff until a break, or risk missing a wonderful piece of iffy 1970′s presentation, caused switching across to see what is happening on Soccer Saturday.

Oh, and it was good to see that for the sheep that lost their coats it was not vein with the wonderous garment that adorned Gerry on this weeks epsidoe!

In an era now when football presenters go casual, nice to see Gerald to set the trend!

Just pure magic from ITV, can we have more sports please?
