Murray Walker is a shining example of getting the most out of every day of your life. You get out of life what you put into it.
yes It was great to see him driving the F1 and riding the scramble bike, not bad for 87!

I read his biography a few years ago and didn't think there was anything new in this documentary apart from a few snippets from the archives.

I read it last year and found it quite a dull book. The programme didn't add much but glammed his life up somewhat - still quite a remarkable man though.

What were you expecting 'new' then?

For those of us who have not read his book I would hazard a guess we all found it an interesting, entertaining and informative programme, I know I did.

I'm not sure! There were just quite a few de ja vu moments. Don't get me wrong, love the guy and his work.
