Some lovely footage/interviews filmed in 2012 but only recently pulled together. Here's the star car parked on St Johns Wood high street in 2014.  Happy memories. It was around that time I was privileged to hear a couple of stories first hand from Norman and chat to him at a couple of events. |

Have saved that to watch later! However, it reminded me of this TV series from the late '80s, which also featured Sir Stirling Moss. My father recorded it from the telly onto VHS and I must have watched it so many times as a child. Sadly the tape has been mislaid, and I also no longer have a VHS player...

Brilliant stuff. What a triumph. And to think that Jaguar shelved the project due to their PR people changing direction at the time it was made. Al has really created a gem in the midst of a lockdown.

Yes! I remember Bryn talking about this around the time and saying that it was unlikely that this would ever see the light of day. Glad it has!

A classic example of the massive contribution that motorsport made and continues to make to the safety and efficiency of the cars you and I drive......and one in the eye for the nose-thumbers (and there are many across social media this morning in the light of the announcement of the impending knighthood of Lewis Hamilton) who decry racing as 'just going round and round in circles'.
And, of course, this is a beautifully filmed and presented tribute to some absolute legends. Well done, guys.
