“Morning to you, John. It’s going to be a very special day there, isn’t it? Many memories, sad memories, obviously, but also a celebration of a great cricketer.”
John replied: “Yeah, Charlie. He spent his entire career here at Surrey, Graham Thorpe, and as you saw in the film there, wherever you go around here, whoever you talk to, he is one of the names that you see.
“It’s a story venue, obviously, The Oval, and when you look at the honors board, you see all of the names there, some of the biggest names in the game of cricket ever, basically.
“And Thorpe is right up there, and so it will be, I think, a special day, a moving day on would have been his 56th birthday, as you were saying earlier, but a day of celebration of his life, I think, is what the family certainly wanted to be.”
