Small number of points for moi. Looking for a late surge, lads. Oh! and best PM we never had. ( Prime Minister! Not the other kind of PM.)

He beat the other best PM we never had in the 1981 Labour Deputy Leadership election- with a majority of 0.5%, helped by those who promptly defected to the SDP after voting.

He talks a bit about their relationship in this interview, which I came across amongst the Twitter obituaries.

Yeah, my old man always said he was the best leader of the Labour Party we never had and as I got older I reckon he was right. He was a politician I respected, it didn't stop him making it on to my (very long) short list and would probably have made the squad for next year, hey ho, free's up a place for a younger cat I guess.
