| 20060522 | John Wilson goes behind the sports stories to find the cultural, human and poltical issues they highlight.

He'll explore misanthropy, drug taking and racism in America as the USA struggles to accept its latest basball hero, and why the likes of Barnsley and Cheltenham offer a more exciting climax to the English football season than Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea or Manchester United. |
