In terms of individual sporting achievement then I would rate this as top in my lifetime given the 77 year thing.
I know it wasn't on the BBC, but the moment when the mc at Wembley said 'the winner..... and new heavyweight champion of the world frank bruno' was also huge given how long he had been trying, but loses out as there are so many world champions.
The Olympics always throws up great stories and I do believe that super Saturday from 2012 is probably the greatest single day of British sporting achievement given the breadth and depth of winners.
And for jingoistic team football, well 5-1 in Munich or beating Argentina indoors, at least in terms of the amount of alcohol in consumed in celebration.
