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, ...
