The medical research carried out by Dr David Owen OBE into Parkinson’s Disease has helped countless people around the world.
But, away of the lab, it’s a love of cricket which has kept him going.
And that includes a vivid memory of a hundred partnership he shared with Geoffrey Boycott in the 1980s. It’s a great story and as Dr Owen notes, “he was as difficult as one might have imagined!”.
In this episode, Dr Owen shares his memories of that innings and subsequent meetings with Boycott, and much more: watching Don Shepherd versus Richie Benaud, chatting to Wes Hall about one special match, playing with Peter May, and umpiring Stuart Broad and Samit Patel.
Presented by Greg Lewis.
