Welcome to 1951/52, it's the season where Newcastle are about to win their fifth FA Cup out of six ever lifted in their history.

The FA Cup champions have just returned from a grueling post season tour of South Africa which has a knock-on effect on their league form but when the FA Cup begins in January 1952 cup fever soon sets in and Newcastle find themselves at Wembley once more.

This episode focuses on a host of legends including George Robledo, Jackie Milburn and a certain John Lennon

Theme music by Tom Ramsey.
