With unprecedented access to a top athlete, the film tracks all the elements that make up McCoy's life. We see him in action at racecourses across the UK and Ireland. We are with him at the Cheltenham Festival and Aintree. We see him struggling with injury at home, setting himself new targets and grappling with the decision whether to retire or not. We track the successful early part of the season, when AP harbours the outrageous idea of riding 300 winners in a season. We see the shattering effect of injury on body and psyche. We witness the torment of deciding whether this is to be his last season, and we are there as he goes through the public agony of playing out his retirement in public. And then it's no more. Our cast is the team around him; the billionaire owner, JP McManus, the trainers, the fellow jockeys that make up that unique band of brothers, and above all, his wife Chanelle, who has lived through everything at his side. This is far from just being a story about racing, although there will certainly never be another AP McCoy. It is about universal themes, recognisable to the widest audience; relationships, decisions, sacrifices.

A footballer, a father, a cultural icon and a footballing legend, Bobby Moore was a hero to successive generations of footballers and football fans alike, described by Pele as the best defender he ever played against. At the height of his fame, not only did he captain his country to victory at the 1966 World Cup, but alongside icons such as The Rolling Stones, renowned photographer David Bailey and Sir Michael Caine, he helped spread the influence of British culture across the globe. From huge success on the field for both his country and his beloved West Ham United, to personal tragedies away from football – including overcoming a cancer at aged just 24 - Bobby tells in intricate detail just how this legend became a global sporting hero. A man full of contradictions, he was renowned for his love of a drink and a party, yet his stoicism, courage and single-minded approach to both his life, and his football, was second to none. Bobby will feature exclusive interviews with family members who knew him best, plus icons including Pele, Wayne Rooney, Roy Hodgson, Paul Gascoigne, Gordon Banks, Sir Geoff Hurst, with Russell Brand, Ray Winstone and more. It will also feature previously unseen match footage that has been unearthed following an intensive year-long search, including from that 1966 World Cup Final!

Bolshoi Babylon TAltitude Film Sales Cast: Sergei Filin, Maria Alexandrova, Anastasiya Meskova, Maria Allash Charlie Kemball +49 30 400 425 401 Genre: Documentary [email protected] Director: Nick Read Market Office: MGB 134 Status: Completed Home Office tel: +44 20 7478 7612 Synopsis: The Bolshoi. Symbol of Russia, a national treasure – mystical and intriguing. Recently, however, the theatre has been in the headlines for all the wrong reasons: intrigue, personal attacks and management changes have created lurid headlines. Now, for the first time, the theatre directors have allowed a film crew access backstage for an entire season. This new chapter in the Bolshoi's story provides the background for a unique cinematic experience. From the two-time Academy Award-winning producer of Man on Wire and Searching for Sugar Man, BOLSHOI BABYLON gives a voice to artists and company members who are not usually in the limelight in irreverent and candid terms. Combining epic themes with intimate portraits, historical dramas are counterpointed with the untold personal stories of agony and ecstasy that lie behind every acclaimed performance. With unparalleled behind-the-scenes access, the film pays tribute to the dancers' extraordinary artistic and athletic talents, their abiding fear of injury and the ruthless ambition needed to survive in the world's most famous ballet company.
