Sir Geoff Hurst: Last Man Standing

About this event

7.30pm – An Evening with Sir Geoff Hurst: Last Man Standing LAST MAN STANDING Sir Geoff Hurst comes to The Blake Theatre on his final farewell tour as we celebrate the 60th anniversary of his legendary hat trick that led to winning the 1966 World Cup. Sir Geoff Hurst is a sporting legend. He made his name with club side West Ham United, with whom he made 499 league and cup appearances, scoring 248 goals. He was Player of the Year three times and won the FA Cup with West Ham in 1964 and the European cup winners cup in 1965. However, it was playing in the national side that launched Sir Geoff as a world football icon – not only as being part of the England team that won the World Cup in 1966 but also scoring a hat trick in that final – leading to Kenneth Wolstenholme’s immortal words “They think it’s all over – it is now!” His good friend and agent Terry Baker, from A1 Sporting Speakers, will be joining Sir Geoff on stage for an intimate conversation full of humour and heart as he talks about his illustrious career as a football player for both West Ham and England. Audience members will have a chance to ask questions of their own in the second half.
