He holds England's record for goals in FIFA World Cup finals, with 10 scored and is England's third highest top scorer. Lineker's media career began with the BBC, where he still presents the flagship football programme Match of the Day since the late 1990s.

Gary very kindly invited Giles and Jim to his house in South West London for a cuppa and a chat about all things BLANK. We talked about making big decisions at a young age and the feeling of getting to a point where you're confident in what you do. Gary also talked openly about those moments off the field, including when his first son George was diagnosed with leukaemia as a child, had affected him and how football helped him through that time. With Christmas just around the corner, Giles and Gary share some cooking tips while Jim ponders what a waterbath is. @blankpod @eliistender @jimdalycomedy @garylineker [email protected] Learn more about your ad choices.
