Bert & Dickie poster

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.

00:45:56 You know, I'm really not...

00:52:24 Breathe in, Dickie. Go on. Go on!
00:56:17 And the spam's disgustin'.
01:00:20 I wanted to ring and... apologise for not getting in touch sooner.
01:03:19 Britain and the Yanks. Neck and neck.
01:07:11 I've just been rowing in an Olympic semifinal.

04:00:04 I'm not used to it.
