 A classic line up of presenters and commentators for the 1968 Olympics. And before the moaning minnies start, there was one woman on the team, but she was making the tea while this picture was being taken. |

Peter's holding the Mexico 68 clipboard.
The bloke on the extreme right was the trombone player in the original line-up for The Carpenters. |

What is interesting about this photo is that it encompasses the extensive and full range of BBC Sports bods at that time - from Alan Weeks (a gentleman and scholar of impeccable manners and bearing) right through the full range of gentlmanly attributes ending eventually, and at some distance with the reactionary and sexist fruitcake that became well known as David Coleman.
