Dennis Coath has interviewed many legends from the world of sport, from Muhammad Ali, to Ayrton Senna and Sir Alex Ferguson. But the retired former sports editor has also met Leicester legends Sir David Attenborough and Gary Lineker in the course of his long career. Dennis spent 30 years in various roles in broadcasting at ITV and the BBC - and even a spell at Radio Leicester in the 1970's. He tells Jo Bostock of some of his most memorable interviews included in his new book 'Rats, Pies, and Pigeon Poo'.
