Speaking of this very informative broadcast I was surprised to hear them refer to the MG TC/TD/TF as Midgets. Particularly since the mid to late 50's is when I "got" into sports cars here in SOCA where there were lots of cars. But I had never heard anyone refer to that series of MG as a Midget. I had always thought the original Midgets were pre 1940 cars. But there are lots of references on the internet that say otherwise. Lear something new everyday.
