54 years old and still great! I hope as many people as possible that were on the show and are now in their 70s and 80s (if they were between 16 and 26 when they played as most were) can see this.
All the teams had their own personalities if you watch closely, the French girls were smiley, the Belgian men were "blokey" the Italian men were hot and the British hopeless until they rallied near the end.
.I thought Netherlands were going to get robbed on the Fil Rouge for a second but it turned out great for them.

Brilliant! Thanks so much! The show that went out live on the day I was born. I’ve always wanted to see this.

Note they're testing the big blue electric scoreboard used onscreen from 1971 to 1977 in the background.

First time out for the electronic scoreboard.

Thanks so much David, you're great!!
I have a request, is it possible to view the heats 1977 from Evry and Antwerpen ?

[@magnodavide]

Evry is the big missing one…
