BBC4 9PM Mon 8th Oct - The Golden Age of the British Sports Car

Magnificent Machines: The Golden Age of the British Sports Car
quote:

Timeshift sets its rear view mirror to look back at the golden age of the British sports car.
It's the story of how - in the grey austerity of the post-war years - iconic marques like Jaguar, Austin-Healey, MG
and Triumph sparked a manufacturing frenzy that helped to democratise speed and glamour.

From the MG Midget, much loved by American GIs, through to the more affordable Austin Healey 'frog-eye' Sprite,
and the E-Type Jaguar, seen by many as the ultimate sports car, this is a tale of how, for a brief time,
Britain was home to two-seater heaven.
