Let's make this birthday one to remember.

87 years old (Born on October 24, 1937)

Happy Birthday, Barry Davies! You've commentated on more World Cups and European Championships than most of us have had hot dinners. From your iconic Olympic coverage in 2000, 2004, and the unforgettable London Games in 2012—your voice has become as legendary as the events themselves.

Whether it's football drama or Olympic glory, you've always found just the right words to capture every thrilling moment. May your birthday be filled with fewer yellow cards and plenty of golden moments—and remember: age is merely a number...but nine World Cups? Now that's impressive commentary stamina!

Cheers to you today!
