Sir Bobby Charlton at 80

4 members

To coincide with his 80th birthday, a very special documentary celebrating the remarkable career of one England's most iconic and greatest ever footballers, Sir Bobby Charlton.

Sir Bobby was a key member of the England team that won the World Cup on home soil in 1966 and part of a Manchester United team touched by success and tragedy in equal measure. Charlton survived the Munich air disaster in 1958 which killed several of his teammates dubbed the Busby Babes. He became a crucial figure in the club's resurgence, winning two league titles and, unforgettably in 1968, the European Cup against Benfica. Renowned for his attacking instincts and ferocious long-range shot, until recently he held goalscoring records for England and Manchester United.
