I remember the 91 final, and watching the entire coverage from 12pm onwards. Cup final day used to be a proper event.

I think it was about 10.30 or so in the 60's - SIlly programmes like "It's a Cup Final Knockout" plus it was on both BBC & ITV back then. One of the few live matches to be seen back then, next up was the European Cup Final the week after - then Home Internationals or WC/EC finals.

The 1991 Cup Final:

I'd just turned 12. In my first year of following Spurs, we lost in a cup final against Coventry of all clubs. This felt like my choice of club had been vindicated, especially with Mabbutt, the fall guy in 87, making that goal possible and lifting the cup.

That was my team.
