Apparently this Christmas on Sky 1 there will be a programme called the Norris McWhirter Chronicles. I have been unable to find out what day or time it is on.
Norris McWhirter was co-editor of the Guinness Book of Records and appeared on Record Breakers with Roy Castle. His brother Ross was murdered by the IRA in 1975. The film is an acccount of Norris' visit to David Baddiel's school in 1978:
I found this out by accident because I follow some political web sites. Unfortunately, Baddiel has been slandering Norris because of his involvement in politics so this programme may be a hatchet job. Anybody who is interested can find more details at the Cranmer blog. The organisation he founded, the Freedom Association, is also lodging a complaint.

The Norris McWhirter Chronicles, which is a faithful retelling of a true story, takes us to 1978. Record Breakers is at the height of its popularity and the latest guest speaker at teenage David Baddiel’s school is none other than editor of the Guinness Book of Records, Norris Mcwhirter. This is a man famed for being right.The voice of authority on Record Breakers, there is no fact he can’t recall. But is this respected man of intellect always correct? Young David’s future knowledge and further encounters of Norris suggest otherwise...
