I mentioned on the tea break thread that the prog was scheduled, but from the lack of replies guess no one watched it. Unfortunately I was travelling at the broadcast time, but as it is a recently produced documentary hopefully it will be shown again!
I wasn't very old during Mike Hawthorn's successful years, so don't remember much about his racing. I do remember the newspaper coverage of his death, though, and the subsequent debate regarding the cause of the accident.
OT, but I also remember the media coverage when Jim Clark died, and Mike Hailwood. All tragic losses.
