There are links on Google, particularly in the Australian media, maybe they include the whole program.
I thought Chappell came across as a bitter and twisted old man. I think he chose the wrong person to belittle in 1977.
There must have witness's to the altercation. Why have they never spoken publicly? Who are they afraid off?

 

[Is it PotG?]

It's on Amazon Prime.

It's a bit pathetic really. Two old men sniping at each other over nothing.

They’d fit right in on NSC.

Playground stuff. They need to grow up.

 

[Cheshire Cat]

For all Botham's achievements as a player, he does come across as a complete arse.

Exactly the trailer has more than a whiff of 'bald men fighting over a comb'.

If it's all a big set up I might give it a watch.
If it's as the trailer suggests it's hard to think of anything more embarrassing.

Did a lot of work for charidee too.

True - but still an arse.

 

[Nobby]

Pathetic - Baron Botham is a complete thicko, an obvious liar - and obviously Chappell hold a grudge.

Who do people believe - my gut says Chappell.

Botham has weedled his way into the establishment via that wonderful upstanding chap B. Johnson - case is proven?

There are a lot of failed humans who did a lot for charity - one from Yorkshire comes to mind
Being a charity giver doesn't stop you being an idiot

Blimey, that's a jump.

He's only getting tetchy with an Aussie.

All I'm saying is that cos a guy does a lot for charity doesn't stop him being an arse.

So did Jimmy Saville

 

[Clive Walker]

I like botham. Remember when he tweeted a pic of his erect penis to all followers and claimed he’d been hacked.

 

[Is it PotG?]

So did Jimmy Saville

I fail to see a comparison between a sporting legend with an 'edge' and a disgusting paedo.

They both did a lot of work for charity? Duh

The point being. Just because someone does a lot of work for charity does not make them a good person or deserving of a knighthood shirley?

Without their charity work it is un-likely either would have got a knighthood!

The Revitive adverts do though.

It has been suggested elsewhere that Savile may have used the charity route to possibly give him opportunities to prey.
