We delve into the BN archives for an interview with the late, great British lightweight legend Dave Charnley
THERE’S a topic that gets discussed on social media and net message forums with predictable regularity. Who was the greatest British boxer never to win a world title? Answers tend to focus on fighters from the 1980s onwards, and there are lots of worthy nominees from earlier periods who get overlooked – mainly, I think, because they aren’t well known to modern fans.

Known as “The Dartford Destroyer”, southpaw Charnley was undefeated in British and European lightweight title fights, but lost his two world title bids to American Joe Brown, being stopped on a cut the first time and on the wrong end of a debatable decision in the return. Back in 1970 – six years after Dave’s retirement – BN sat down with the former champ to get the inside track on his career

Breese wondered why underground toilets had seemed like a good idea - and why we no longer build them. The underground design was part of the Victorian idea of. modesty around being in public and needing to go to the toilet, she said.
