After Bill telling us a little bit about the newly discovered photo of Maurice, Andrew gives us a comprehensive outline of Maurice's sporting life, focusing on his first class cricket career with Glamorgan.
We talk about his sporting achievements, what he was like as a player in cricket, rugby and hockey as well as his prowess as a leader of the Glamorgan County Club.
We discuss the possibility of Maurice being Britain's greatest ever all round sportsman and the episode finishes with Andrew very poignantly telling the story of Maurice Turnbull's death after the D Day Landings.
