the happiest moment of my childhood

Sitting in front of the television in the back room at 18 Main Road, Tallaght, County Dublin early on a long lost Sunday morning in 1972.
Me and my little brother Barn were perched there without much hope of being entertained.
In those days normally you could find nothing except sport on television on Sunday.
Suddenly a plummy BBC presenter's voice announced: "And now... instead of our scheduled coverage of today's West Indies versus England cricket international which has been halted due to rain, we bring you the classic 1963 film Doctor Who And The Dalek Invasion Of Earth."
