This two-hour DVD from director Tony Palmer celebrates the extraordinary life of Bobby Moore. Described by veteran sports journalist the late Ian Wooldridge as the best sports documentary I have ever seen the film stars all the 1966 World Cup heroes plus contributions from Michael Caine Pele Harry Redknapp David Beckham George Best Jimmy Greaves and members of Moore's family. Bobby Moore remains an iconic figure and inspiration for generations of football players and fans - a rags-to-riches fairy tale and a special moment in English history. He was the first (and so far only) English captain to hold the World Cup in his hands. Bobby Moore's journey from the poverty-stricken East End to becoming the most famous man in England came to symbolise the triumph of a country and of an entire generation. This film tells the true story of the man and the footballer. All his football contemporaries in the England team of 1966 were interviewed - among them Bobby and Jack Charlton Geoff Hurst Martin Peters Alan Ball and George Cohen - as well as iconic figures such as David Beckham George Best Harry Redknapp Jimmy Greaves Terry Venables Franz Beckenbauer Pel'' Michael Caine Denis Law Jimmy Tarbuck Alan Shearer and Malcolm Allison; and most importantly Bobby Moore's Aunt Ina daughter Roberta and son Dean as well as both his wives Tina & Stephanie. Their eye-witness accounts together with a special contribution from Alf Garnett (Warren Mitchell) football footage of England's campaigns in 1966 and 1970 and archive film of Bobby Moore's parents and of Alf Ramsey throughout that period make this film a unique family record of an extraordinary man.
This DVD tells the dramatic story of the England Football team.From the first ever England vs. Scotland game in 1872 in front of a few thousand spectators through to Euro '96 all the vital matches key moments and great goals are featured.Witness the trouncing by Scotland's Blue Devils in 1928; the 6-3 defeat of Germany in front of the Nazi leader; the World Cup triumph of 1966; Maradona's 'Hand of God' goal in 1986; the thrills and spills of Italia '90; Linekar's final match and the triumphs of England under Terry Venables.Compare the skills of footballing legends from the past such as Matthews Lawton Wright Moore Greaves and Banks - with modern-day heroes like Lineker Gascoigne Ince Platt and Shearer.Crammed full of England's greatest goals from the bullet headers of Tommy Lawton and the classic strikes of Jimmy Greaves to the net busting drives of Bobby Charlton and the clinical finishes of Gary Lineker.Interspersed with the action we hear from some of England's most important players of their pride in pulling on an England shirt including Billy Wright Geoff Hurst And Gary Lineker; and from Bobby Robson and Graham Taylor on the strains of running the national team.
