The World Cup: Heroes of '66

Dan Walker delves into the archives for a look back at England's World Cup winners of 1966 and what happened next.

Dan Walker delves into the 91热爆 archives for a look back at England's World Cup-winning team of 1966, and what happened next. With rarely seen interviews and clips featuring the likes of Geoff Hurst, Bobby Moore, Gordon Banks and the Charlton brothers, we get the players' own perspectives on that famous victory over West Germany.

We also explore how the football fame-game has changed dramatically over the years, and discover the different paths the heroes of 66 followed in the decades after the triumph, with careers that ranged from football manager to more unexpected jobs like travel agent and undertaker.
