This BT Sport Documentary Tells Football’s Windrush Story
This is a trailer for a BT Sport documentary – Standing Firm: Football’s Windrush Story. The doc explores the impact the Windrush generation had on culture, the UK in general, and specifically football. The trailer, set against a backdrop of Professor Benjamin Zephaniah’s poetry, features a fast-paced montage of archive imagery from the original Windrush arrivals all the way through to footage of mines, clubs, hospitals, and football matches of the last few decades. The full film will premiere on BT Sport in Autumn 2021, and if this trailer is anything to go by it will be a must-watch.
The story of Virgin Galactic
The Virgin Galactic team have put out an inspirational video showcasing the moments throughout founder Richard Branson’s career that have led to this point: his first trip into space. It’s an emotional, creative edit that combines archive footage with new interviews, footage from the flights themselves, the engineers and the control room.
Check out the New Grand Tour trailer from Amazon
Hot off the press, the new Grand Tour trailer for Amazon’s Clarkson/Hammond/ May show is off to a roaring start. It’s exactly what you’d expect from these guys with the kind of budget that Amazon can throw at it. Even though travel restrictions prevented the team from going anywhere exotic the production has more than made up for it with an incredible showcase of Scotland.
