In the summer of 1933 three men of Empire, the brilliant young Australian batsman Donald Bradman, the gentleman English captain Douglas Jardine and the English speed bowler Harold Larwood, met on a cricket pitch in Adelaide and almost tore that Empire apart.

They were the central figures in one of the most controversial sporting events of this century: the infamous "bodyline" test cricket series of 1932-33. It was a series which was to threaten the traditional ties between Australia and the "mother" country, rewrite the rules of cricket and give Australia a new national identity.

BODYLINE, one of the best loved and remembered television mini-series from Kennedy Miller stars Hugo Weaving as Douglas Jardine, Gary Sweet as Donald Bradman and Jim Holt as Harold Larwood and was directed by Carl Schultz, George Ogilvie, Denny Lawrence and Lex Marinos.

BODYLINE, about three men and "the war" which rocked the foundations of Empire, is another one of the GREAT AUSTRALIAN STORIES.
