Harold Larwood, the England fast bowler famous for his role in the Bodyline series, talks to Brian Johnston at Headingley in 1968. He was 63 at the time.

Larwood took 33 wickets in that 1932-33 series at just under 20 apiece. A broken left foot prevented him from bowling in the 1933 season and he never played for England again.

He died in Sydney in 1995, aged 90, having emigrated to Australia in the 1950s.
