Three decades on from their most famous clash, Zola Budd and Mary Decker are reunited to share memories of the incident which made worldwide headlines at the 1984 Olympic Games. The two athletes had been competing in the 3000m final - which Decker, who was running for the US, had been widely tipped to win. But she fell after a collision with Budd, who was part of the British team. Budd, who was born in South Africa and aged 18 at the time of the race, was later accused of tripping her up. The crowd's hostile reaction after Decker's fall caused Budd, who famously ran barefoot and had been winning the race, to finish seventh. This clip is from Budd and Decker, broadcast on Thursday 28 July 2016.
