Hawking: The Story Of A Search For The Beginning Of Time

The story of Professor Stephen Hawking’s early years is told for the first time in a major drama for BBC Two. It is 1963, and our young cosmologist celebrates his 21st birthday. At the party is a new friend, Jane Wilde - there is a strong attraction between the two. Jane is intrigued by Stephen’s talk of stars and the Universe. But she realises that there is something very wrong when Stephen suddenly finds that he is unable to stand up. Hawking stars Benedict Cumberbatch as the young Stephen Hawking who, as a bright and ambitious 21-year-old PhD student at Cambridge University, is diagnosed with the debilitating motor neurone disease and given two years to live. Against the odds, he goes on to achieve scientific success and worldwide acclaim, in particular with his best-selling book A Brief History Of Time.
