Kelly Cates rewinds 25 years to the summer of Euro 96, and more specifically the Scotland versus England game at Wembley.

Played on Saturday 15th June 1996, the game is remembered for Gary McAllister’s missed penalty, Paul Gascoigne’s goal and the iconic dentist chair celebration that followed.

We hear from the Tartan Army, England supporters, journalists, the man in charge of Wembley and the DJ who pressed play on the Three Lions CD that sparked the party inside the old stadium. It was the time of Cool Britannia, with Oasis, Blur and The Spice Girls providing a musical backdrop to an unforgettable summer.
