He is, quite simply, The Voice of rugby and "Bill McLaren Rugby At Its Best" is a celebration of not just the sport itself, but of Bill McLaren's love for the game.
That distinctive Scottish tone, blessed with a depth and passion like no other, has captivated and enthralled rugby union viewers for 50 years. With an ordinarily keen eye for events on screen and a list of catch phrases as long as your arm, Bill McLaren is, without doubt, one of the most distinguished sports commentators ever.
Describing a mass brawl with players kicking the living daylights out of each other, as "A Slight Altercation", is one of the many delightful features of the soothing and understated words of commentator supreme, Bill McLaren. On this excellently put-together DVD, McLaren looks back on some of his own personal highlights and treasured memories of the game he so loves. There is some amazing action from the great Welsh and New Zealand sides from yesteryear, as well as scintillating tries from some of the world's best players. With tributes from Bill Beaumont, Gareth Edwards, Will Carling and Andy Irvine, this is wholly unique video that commemorates one of the great ambassadors of the sport.
For fans of Bill McLaren and the sport of rugby union, this is a highly recommended purchase, featuring great footage and expert commentary from the master of the microphone.
