JP: "I should have dedicated this programme at the beginning to the England cricketers, particularly Bob Willis and Ian Botham. I'm not that keen on cricket, but obviously today's result has been very romantic, very Roy of the Rovers ^[2] And also it may keep Lady Di's wedding dress off the front pages if only for 24 hours and I think we should be grateful for that."
