Does anyone have contact with these former Spectrum programmers, or know how to get in touch with them? I'm currently researching an article for Retro Gamer and it would be great to have their input.

    might be the same one??!!.. there is an interview from Crash when he was at virgin and the photo looks like the same dude..

    they were both part of gang of 5?!?!

    I'm guessing Wheeler is a Londoner or was near London, simply due to the fact of the games released, one was via virgin the other by silversoft (in hammersmith)

    Yes, it is the same Martin Wheeler.

    Jon and Chris from Sensible were both musicians, in fact they started out as a band. And Jon's been playing in Stuck In D'80s, the C64-based rock band.
