Episode notes

For episode six, I was joined by James Montague - author of fine football books, journalist for the New York Times and regular contributor to the BBC's World Football show.

It's another Schwarzenegger classic, a adaptation of the Stephen King short story "The Running Man".

For info, the opening music is "Paula's Theme" from the movie, from the dancing scene at the beginning of the show, choreographed by Paula Abdul. The closing song is "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother" by The Hollies, re-released in 1988.
