Angela Bryant brought in this programme to the BBC Suffolk event at Ipswich Museum on Tuesday, 16 February, 2010.

This is a signed programme from the first four minute mile athletic meeting in Oxford in 1954. All the times are recorded by Angela's husband, who was a member of the Oxford University athletics team and helped to organise the meeting.

All members of the team signed the programme and the achievements of that remarkable day have been recorded forever.
