The sports documentary charts the story of rugby star Jason Robinson's rise from inner-city council estate to World Cup winner. Robinson endured a troubled childhood before establishing himself as a teenage superstar in the all-conquering Wigan side of the 1990s. Off the field, however, his struggles with alcohol and a brush with the law led him to the brink of suicide. Known as Billy Whizz on account of his searing pace, he controversially switched codes from League to Union at the age of 25. His glittering career included three World Cup Final appearances and he scored England's only try in the 2003 victory over Australia. With contributions from Wigan and England teammate, Andy Farrell, and England's World Cup winning coach, Sir Clive Woodward.
