A story about friendship, race, community and sport. This documentary explores how and why the world’s biggest black cricketing stars came to live and play in small white towns in Northern England.
Made on a tiny budget the story grew in demand and was broadcast right across the BBC. Starting on BBC4, with showings on BBC News Channel, Breakfast, Radio 4, Radio Five Live and North West Tonight.
Race and Pace reunited old friends after decades and oceans apart and told a positive, heart-warming story about an often-hidden area of Britain.
The entire programme was conceived, produced, written, filmed and edited by Stuart Pollitt and Phill Smith.
They discovered hidden interviewees who had never spoken before, persuaded world famous sportsmen to be interviewed for no fee and also crossed the Atlantic to track down the 89-year-old daughter of the first black cricketer in Lancashire.
The impact of the programme was huge and the reaction extraordinary.
