Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll

Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll

Defying all the odds, he emerges as one of Britain's most original and influential singers and songwriters in late-'70s Britain.

Multi-talented and multi-faceted, Ian Dury becomes the man who puts the phrase 'Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll' into the English language.

Bill Milner (Son Of Rambow) plays Ian's son Baxter, with Olivia Williams as his first wife Betty. Naomie Harris plays Ian's on-off girlfriend Denise and Tom Hughes plays Chaz Jankel, Ian's songwriting partner in the Blockheads.

The cast is rounded out by Toby Jones as tyrant schoolmaster Hargreaves, Noel Clarke as sound engineer Desmond, Mackenzie Crook as Russell from Ian's earlier band 'Kilburn & the High Roads' and Ray Winstone as Ian's dad Bill.

Talented Cardiff-based actor Wesley Nelson, who has cerebral palsy, plays the young Ian Dury.
