Bert & Dickie (2012)

Directed by David Blair

Overview

Thrown together just five weeks before the final of the 1948 London Olympics, Bert Bushnell (Doctor Who’s Matt Smith) and Dickie Burnell (Sam Hoare) defied all the odds and made history in the double sculls. This is the story of how they did it - not only by pushing physical and emotional limits, but also by overcoming their vast professional and personal differences.
