Linford review – the scenes about the racist fetishisation of his genitals are heartbreaking | Television & radio

Published by skeptic

‘I am so proud of being British,” says Linford Christie. Watching this painful hour and a half-long portrait of one of Britain’s most accomplished yet controversial athletes, it’s hard to figure out why. England’s footballers may be enduring 58 years of hurt, but Christie runs them a close second. When Christie sensationally won gold in the 100m final of the 1986 European Championships in Stuttgart (“I must have been ranked about 15th”), he celebrated on track by draping the union jack over his shoulders – only to be ticked off. Now 64, Christie recalls being told by a British official that it was not the done thing: “He meant it was not the done thing for a Black person.” Back home in London, the Jamaican-born athlete wore his team tracksuit proudly on the street, on the tube, everywhere. Until one day a policeman stopped him and asked a question that still pains Christie. “‘What’s a nigger like you doing wearing a British tracksuit?’ It hurt a lot.” Linford Christie after winning the 100m final at …

Being cheated on can feel like a sharp blow to the heart. And the betrayal of being blinded by cheating can be overwhelming and infuriating for anyone who’s been through it. Then there’s the even bigger question that needs to be addressed: why did they cheat in the first place? Was it something you did, or is there more to it? Psychotherapist Esther Perel dives into the main reasons people cheat on their partners. The Most Heart-Breaking Reason People Cheat People cheat for a lot of reasons, but the main one often boils down to something more internal. Perel puts it like this, “Either there’s something missing in our relationship or there’s something missing in you.” Cheaters don’t cheat for the fun of it or because of sexual reasons.
