6 parts over 3 hours fly on the wall documentary about Wigan RL and Orrell RU from back in the glory days. It is compelling viewing, really good.

Thanks for this. It's my viewing for the week.

I remember it well - it made us look very professional in contrast to the union boys. Sammy Southern's (?) team talk became a long-standing joke in our house: "You know what you've got to do, now go out there and do it."

I wasn't alive when this happened, so a really great insight into what RL was like back in the day. I am also a History student so right up my street, thanks for posting!
