Thanks, Dare. I'll keep an eye out for it.

Brilliant documentary, one of the best I've seen, every F1 fan should watch it and then you'd understand, like I have just done, why he was about the best loved of all drivers.

What a sense of humour he had too, bit of a b*stard if you upset him though.

I finally got round to watching this program.  Fabulous.  What a character?

The BBC every year do a sports review of the year program which runs for about 3 hours and covers all sorts of different sports.  Graham's interview of Jackie Stewart where he is asking why he had failed to win 7 races is from the 1971 show.  By co-incidence I have been looking for clips of those shows because the two of them did a double act regularly.  I finally found a link but I can't get any of it to run.  The 1973 piece they did is supposed to be the best.  You may have more luck than me in making the vids run.
