Publisher's Synopsis
More than two decades of broadcasting, five World Cups, three Olympic Games and appearances on the TV programmes "Grandstand" and "Match Report" have helped to make Archie Macpherson a well-known sports broadcaster. This book details Archie's career in broadcasting, from his first appearance with commentators such as Peter Thomson, to Scottish international events. He was present in 1974 in Frankfurt, in Barcelona filming the Russians with a camera concealed inside his coat, in Seoul in 1988 when Ben Johnson tested positive for drugs, and at Calgary when Eddie the Eagle shot to fame in the ski jump event.
