Bobby Moore ? a gentleman off the pitch and a brilliant competitor on it ? was one of the greatest British sportsmen of the 20th century.
But this giant of football was floored by cancer and died 20 years ago.
Now, his widow, Stephanie, has taken up the campaign in Scotland to help people spot the early signs of bowel cancer.
This very English sporting icon underwent a pioneering form of chemotherapy at the Western General Hospital in Edinburgh.
For weeks, he travelled backwards and forwards to the Scottish capital and was treated with the dignity, care and compassion which is the hallmark of our brilliant and much-admired National Health Service.
