Sue Mac Gregor talks to members of the 1980 British Olympic team who defied their Government to attend the Moscow games. In 1979, the British team was in training for the following year's Olympic Games when Russia invaded Afghanistan. President Carter, backed by Margaret Thatcher, urged athletes to boycott the event, & the worlds of politics & sport seemed caught in a headlock. This fascinating programme sees Sue Mac Gregor reuniting members of the British Olympic team as they recall that controversial year. Swimmer Duncan Goodhew, athlete Joslyn Hoyte-Smith, & rowing cox Colin Moynihan faced their own personal dilemmas about competing for their country in the face of political opposition.
