Comment:New in original packaging, Free Delivery, FIRE IN BABYLON West Indies CRICKET NEW SEALED DVD

From the producers of the academy award winning The Last King of Scotland and One Day in September comes one of the most inspiring stories in sporting history...

Fire In Babylon is the breathtaking tale of how the oppressed people of the West Indies fought back and triumphed over its colonial masters, through the remarkable achievements of one of sports most iconic teams.

In a turbulent era of apartheid in South Africa; race riots in England and civil unrest in the Carribean, the West Indian cricketers, led by the enigmatic Viv Richards, struck a wonderfully defiant blow at the forces of white prejudice worldwide.

Their undisputed skill, combined with a fearless spirit, allowed them to dominate the game at the highest level, replaying it on their own, terrifying, terms.

This is their story.


  • Interviews with David Gower, Geoffrey Boycott, Allan Lamb and more
  • How the West Indies changed cricket forever
  • The next generation: Curtley Ambrose and Richie Richardson
  • Viv Richards vs Dennis Lillee
  • Playing against racism
