George Groves and Dec Taylor are joined this episode by acclaimed British actor Johnny Harris.

Star and writer of 2017 boxing film Jawbone - inspired by Johnny’s experiences as a teenage ABA champion – he talks to Dec & George about about how to film fight scenes realistic and working with the likes of Ray Winstone and Paul Weller.

He talks about the primal attraction of the sport, the “terror” of York Hall and that transition from the ring to the stage.

It is a thought provoking and philosophical look at boxing and a fascinating insight into the creative process of filmmaking. Another instant GGBC Hall of Famer.

This is a GGBC Seeing Stars two-parter. Part 2 is available right now. Enjoy!
