On this day in 1983, Jimmy Hill took matters into his own hands in the Wembley commentary box.

Asked by John Motson about a Scotland chance at one end, co-commentator Hill ends up describing a disallowed goal at the other.

It’s 29 years since Channel 5’s ‘innovative’ coverage of England’s WC qualifier in Poland.

Set in a rowdy sports bar, with racing broadcaster Brough Scott presenting & a Z-list celeb audience including the cast of Family Affairs.
