Breaking Baz: Jude Bellingham Will Feature In BBC TV Drama ‘Dear England’ After His Magnificent Bicycle-Kick Goal At Euro 2024


The BBC TV adaptation of Dear England will feature Jude Bellingham’s breathtaking bicycle-kick goal for England at Euro 2024.

EXCLUSIVE: James Graham, the TV dramatist and playwright, has revealed that the BBC adaptation of his acclaimed soccer play Dear England will feature Jude Bellingham ’s breathtaking bicycle-kick goal that spared the Three Lions the ignominy of defeat against Slovakia in the European Football Championships over the weekend. After Bellingham’s coup de match at the AufSchalke arena in Gelsenkirchen, Germany on Sunday, captain Harry Kane scored in extra time giving England a 2-1 win, allowing them to advance to the Euro 2024 quarterfinals where they play Switzerland on July 6, and providing momentary relief from critics back in Blighty. Graham and director Rupert Goold have been on the ground in Germany following England’s progress and charting how Southgate handles what are possibly his last games managing the Three Lions.
