Taking Flight - Britain's America's Cup Challenge
Behind-the-scenes access to Sir Ben Ainslie and his team as they prepare to try and win the America's Cup, sport's oldest international trophy.
Behind-the-scenes access to the most successful Olympic sailor in history, multiple gold-winning Olympian Sir Ben Ainslie, and his team as they prepare to try and win the America's Cup, sport's oldest international trophy - a sporting challenge Britain has never won since it was first raced in 1851.
Ainslie was a key player in the sensational comeback of Oracle Team USA against Emirates Team New Zealand in 2013 and is determined to bring the cup home for Britain. This documentary is an intimate portrayal of top athletes, engineering excellence and a hard-working shore crew who together plan to right a wrong in Britain's great maritime history.
