He's greatest chat show host of all time with some of UK television's the most memorable interviews to his name. Bray's Sir Michael Parkinson is of course Berkshire royalty, but I bet if you had to name one of his favourite guests it'd have to be George Best - a great footballer but also a troubled soul. He joined BBC Radio Berkshire's Sarah Walker. Sir Michael Parkinson: "He was 17, I was in Manchester and had just joined a fledgling Granada Television, and we met through a mutual friend. He was reserved...and not quite the all conquering George we came to know. "He was the greatest footballer I ever saw. "The best years were yet to come. I was watching [Lionel] Messi the other day and he's 32, and that should have been George."
