Please take a minute to listen to an 18 year old Arvid Lindblad's response to a world champion asking him 'What is this world like, the F1 world? You've obviously been in F2, but this is something different altogether, the pressure it brings.'
Arvid: "It is very different and to be honest it's hard for me to really answer that now because I've only done a weekend, I don't really know what it's all like but I think it's an interesting point you make on pressure because a lot of people told me and you know.. I've done one weekend I don't want to talk too much but coming into this weekend a lot of people said there's going to be a lot of pressure and all this and that. In the end, I'm here for myself, I worked my whole life to get to Formula One, I don't have to do it for anyone, I'm here for myself because when I was five years old I had a dream and my dream was to be in Formula One and I was living my dream today and I just wanted to do as best as I possibly could you know and yeah."
I was having a chat with a pal of mine last night about Saturday evening television in the 1980's and, perhaps inevitably, Stan Boardman's 1986 appearance on Des O'Connor tonightย came up.ย
Remember Fokker-gate?
It's the definition of a legendaryย TV moment really, specifically because of the chaos it caused both during and after a live broadcast. Indeed, Stan was all but banned from appearing on live TV for a considerable amount of time afterwards.
It's a great bit of TV!
Happy Friday Eve. Come on, almost there!
Itโs now 40 years since this quite brilliant episode of Yes, Prime Minister was broadcast but somehow it still seems remarkably appropriate after all this time! One of the best comedy series ever and superbly acted.
There are many wonderful videos on the internet, this just happens to be my favorite.
There is no wrong way to be a boy or a girl. THIS is how you talk to kids about gender. @againstgrmrs
