Anglia Soccer Night - Final Edition: 06-05-2008

To mark Anglia Television's 40th anniversary and my first YouTube video, a edited version of the final edition of Anglia Soccer Night from 6th May 2008, where host Kevin Piper is joined by two special guests, long-running Anglia commentator Gerry "Match of the Week" Harrison and long-running guest Peterborough FC manager Barry "Forever Posh" Fry, signing off with a potted decade-by-decade history of local football coverage on Anglia (including Harrison's falling FA Cup sign), before Barry Fry makes his point crystal clear on ITV plc's decision to ditch its regional soccer shows and finally ending on a special set of end credits.

Well, "Beautiful Day" was getting a little tiring in this concept, anyway...!

(BTW Apologies for the slight dropout, it was on the VHS recording)

Thanks for posting this. Good to see Gerry Harrison again who did so much excellent work. I can only agree with Barry Fry.
