Legendary commentator Barry Davies has claimed that Britain should bring back National Service and admitted that he fears for his grandchildren because of the state of the country.
The 87-year-old broadcasting icon covered 10 World Cups and 17 Olympic Games and is the last surviving commentator from England's victorious campaign in 1966.
Davies is known for his commentary on iconic sporting moments including Maradona's infamous 'hand of God' goal against England at the 1986 World Cup, amid a five-decade career which saw him work on Match of the Day from 1969 until 2004.
But it was during National Service that his broadcasting career began.
Born in 1937, Davies was among the final officers to complete the 18-month compulsory service, which ended in 1963, and he worked with the British Forces Broadcasting during his time with the British Army of the Rhine in West Germany.
