Star’s front row seat for sporting history

This week’s pictures from the past
Friday 15th January 2010, 8:40AM GMT.
We’re flashing back 28 years, almost to the day, here to January 10, 1982.
This is what Broad Street, Newtown, looked like in that harsh winter of 1981-82. The photo was emailed in by Dick Williams, of Crosslikey, Churchstoke, who tells us: “The people standing on ‘the mountain’ are my wife, daughter and her two boys. They emigrated to Western Australia 16 years ago, and at this moment are wallowing in 38C.”
