The BRIEF

BBC Our Lives documentary strand looks for everyday people doing incredible things. They look for stories that inspire and explore the depths of the human condition.

Josh Quigley has gone from the depths of depression to world record breaker and is now attempting to pedal his way to bike racing glory.

We knew he was living exactly the story that this audience wanted to explore.

the SOMETHING.

With Josh’s blessing, we followed him for 6 months as he attempted to qualify for the World Championships in Glasgow.

This was the story of a man who decided not to give up and keep moving forward.

We tracked his cycling, we told his story in his words, and we showed the world that dreams, however big or small, can be realised.
“…This gem follows a story of resilience, where the words ‘never give up’ offer a profound reason to live.”The Times
