An exclusive chat with Lewis Reeves, the film-maker and actor behind the much-anticipated new James Coppinger documentary
"The lengthy time from having the initial idea to seeing the final product has not been without its stresses. At one point Lewis thought the plug may well have been pulled but the intervention of arguably the most high-profile Rovers fan, musician Louis Tomlinson, ensured it got the financial boost it needed to get completed: "We ended up bringing in Louis Tomlinson and that gave the film a second wind when it really looked like we were in a bit of trouble.
"Louis is the executive producer and he helped finance the rest of the film when we didn't have the rest of the budget.
"So he came to save the day really. And he's a massive fan of the club, a massive fan of Copps. He's not been massively involved in the creative process, but always been there to support so he's been an integral part in that sense.""
