I just put her name into the search box. There's only ever been the British and American coverage of this race when I've looked in the past, so finding this was a thrill. I remember watching it live when I was only 7 years old, and in combination with Duncan Armstrong's win in the 200 metres Freestyle at the same Games, I've been an Olympic-tragic ever since.
Bruce's commentary of everything is legendary! Lol. Debbie's gold has always been a fond memory for me also, aged just 11 myself, I still recall watching her win and being completely thrilled, especially with the way she won. Great memory!
Good to see the Aussie beat the three Euro drug cheats By the way isn't it good manners to let media from the winner's country have the first interview ? Instead we get a typical Brit who just wanted to talk about Brit athletes !
I think you’ll find that Quarters got the first interview in. But they didn’t have a live feed of it, just recorded on tape then played back later in the telecast.
Debbie was so strong to finish like that. Fantastic to watch again all these years later. Bruce a legendary commentator.
How fascinating that she shared her interview with the next Olympic Champion
Dame Sally Gunnell, another great champion 🏆🥇
Bruce rose to fame during these game. We will miss him in Paris
Still remember it after 32 years later
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for posting this. One of my favourite Australian Olympic moments ever. Bruce's commentary of this race is legendary.
All good! How did you find this?

Tears to my eyes after soo many years!!!!
This was on a vhs my grandmother taped when i was a kid. It's a great contest. 4 contenders for the gold.
Bruce is the master of athletics commentary
Definitely a great win considering the juice in the other athletes.
Nothing like beating a drug cheat by 1/100th of a second. 😂
Legend Debbie! This was such a magical day for us Aussies!
Magical - my favorite sports moment ever👍
My all time favorite gold medal , last step
Only 1 US, Australian and GB runner and all the rest from shall we say tainted programs. Great effort from an absolutely deserving Olympic champion!
Hard to believe rather than dipping and leaning forward, the athlete in the lead LEANED
BACKWARDS on the line!
Great vid, thanks for uploading this 👌🏽🥇
No worries, glad you enjoyed it
Awesome post
Mornington Peninsula represents
FACT: Before Debbie's post race chat with Stephen, she also chatted with Jim Rosenthal of British television.
She talked to Quartermaine first but due to a technical hiccup Channel 10 could only show the ITV interview before they showed the Aussie clip
Good to see the Aussie beat the three Euro drug cheats

Where is the Women 400m flat of 1988?
leader should have dipped at the line and got the gold. Bet she regrets that
She's a guy? Her false start in 84 caused PT Usha a medal.
