Being only 21 I had never seen Englands only World Cup win from 1966 - we are regularly shown the infamous final goal "they think it's all over...it is now!" but with this DVD we now have a chance to see the full match.

The dvd features the original black and white BBC coverage of the match, with Kenneth Wolstenholme commentating. It features disputed goals, clattering tackles, last-minute equalisers and dodgy officials - the question of whether the Russian linesman would have allowed the final winning goal if it had not been against West Germany has been a regular question over the years.

Extras include an alternative match commentary provided by five of the England team themselves - Jack Charlton, Martin Peters, Geoff Hurst, George Cohen and Gordon Banks which is often humourous and filled with recollections of their memory of the world cup and the final. There's also text profiles of the England first eleven, a gallery of stills from the match day, three additional mini-programmes, interviews with Tina Moore (Bobby Moore's wife) and Kenneth Wolstenholme and finally John "Motty" Motson narrates an entertaining documentary on "The Summer of 66", featuring archive and contemporary interviews with players and fans.

A must-view for any Englishman interested in football
