TEN has released a trailer for its two part drama Brock featuring Matthew Le Nevez as champion driver Peter Brock.
The Endemol Shine miniseries also features an almost-unrecognisable Brendan Cowell as Peter’s adversary Allan Moffat, Ella Scott Lynch as Bev Brock, Natalie Bassingthwaighte as Julie Bamford, Steve Bisley as Harry Firth, Axle Whitehead as Colin Bond and Martin Sacks as Peter’s father Geoff Brock.
Footage in the trailer follows earlier reports that producers were asking fans for archival clips after being unable to strike a deal for Seven vision.
Brock reportedly premieres October 9th on TEN.
Peter Brock was one of the greatest sporting heroes Australia has ever known. A maverick, a larrikin and the “King of the Mountain”, his name was synonymous with Australian motor racing until a car crash saw his life brought to an early end.
Ten years after his death, TEN is proud to present Brock, the story of the man behind the legend.
Over two big nights, Brock will follow the life of the Australian icon. From his early racing days to his tragic death in Perth, this special television event traces the soaring highs and brutal lows of one of the country’s most remarkable sportsmen.
Brock not only celebrates the successes Peter had on the track, but also looks at the front-page love affairs and the times when “Peter Perfect” stumbled: the crashes, the shattered friendships and the all-or-nothing gamble on the infamous Energy Polariser, which nearly destroyed his career at Holden.

Odd. I will ask.
Really wish this was Sat-Sun over the Bathurst weekend, not Sun-Mon.
I’ve been waiting for this. The trailer looks good.
David is 9th around the time of Bathurst1000
Bang on…. 6-9 Oct.
Hope this works for TEN. I am more than happy to watch telemovie / mini drama series of interesting people and stories (on any network) as it usually means tighter editing, less viewing commitment and no unnecessary dragging out of the subject matter.
Worked for me. I’m revved up to watch this one – looks like they got the right actors for most roles.
