Sir Bobby Robson: A Knight to Remember

Sir Bobby Robson was a national and international hero whose roots were firmly planted in the coalfields of North East England. His success was based upon his ability to communicate his passion and enthusiasm to those around him. In what became his final filmed interview he looked back on his childhood in County Durham, his love of music and his phenomenal sporting achievements. He also talks about his final great project, The Sir Bobby Robson Foundation.

Directed by Geoff Wonfor, Sir Bobby Robson: A Knight to Remember leans on a strong ensemble — Bobby Robson, Alan Shearer, Paul Gascoigne — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2009.
