This TV film dramatises the last few days of Donald Campbell before he died in the water speed attempt on Coniston. Sir Anthony Hopkins took the part of Donald Campbell.

In the opening sequence Campbell’s blue E type Jaguar is seen approaching Coniston village along Yewdale Road, before turning off onto Sun Hill. The car eventually arrives at the Sun Hotel (see WMCEOX), however it approaches it from the wrong direction!
