| The story of Northern Ireland's World Cup exploits - first in qualifying for the 1958 finals at the expense of twice world champions Italy, thus becoming the smallest ever qualifying country, and then in exceeding all expectations by reaching the quarter-final stage from a group containing West Germany and Argentina.
Ravaged by injury, their adventure ended with defeat to France, but fifty years later the glory is just as vivid to the surviving players, who include Munich disaster hero Harry Gregg and wingers Billy Bingham and Peter McParland, all interviewed here.
