Here we are. To mark the far-too-early-death of the brilliant Peter Jones 30 years ago.
Thanks to the flagging-up by David Woodward of BBC Wales, the nudging of @rosenthal_jim and the unearthing by @graham_mcmillan
We're remembering one of the greatest sports commentators of them all, Peter Jones. Featuring the memories of Des Lynam, Denis Law and Jimmy Armfield.
30 years after his death listen here to "Peter Jones; A Tribute", introduced by @bbcjohnmurray
