Nice list, tried everything on there except the Dutch nettle cheese. I'd add in Harlech cheese, a fairly soft Welsh cheese made with horseradish. Nice on its own, but melt it over a good quality burger or steak and omg...

That's a pretty American list, apart from Maradona. How about Gareth Edward's try in the 1973 Barbarians v All Blacks match? It's often held to be the greatest try ever scored in rugby, a sport with a much wider following than American football. Liverpool's win over AC Milan in the Champion's League final of 2005, coming from 3-0 down at half time to win the match? Roger Bannister breaking the 4-minute mile? Nadia Comanech's perfect set of 10s? I can agree with people like Michael Phelps, Bob Beaman and Jesse Owens, athletics and swimming are a universal, but baseball and American football are minority sports in a world context.

Callaghan? The man was a bad joke as PM and I was glad to see the back of him in 1979, along with most of the rest of the UK! What about Palmerston's 19th C manoeuvring that kept us out of most wars? Or Pitt the Elder?
