SOME PANTOMIME VILLAIN? NOT ME

Legend Tomkins hopes new film will show his true self

- Dave Craven

HE IS always seen as a pantomime villain but Sam Tomkins hopes to reveal his true self in a new groundbreaking documentary.

The legendary ex-Wigan access-all-areas allowed filmmakers for the final few months of his decorated career.

'Tomkins: The Last Chance', made by Jam Films produced and directed by Joe Gardiner, is an in-depth look at the player and the man, as the former England captain dramatically steered Catalan Dragons to last season's Super League Grand Final.

Pieced together with exclusive footage and interviews with family, team-mates and coaches as he rides the highs and lows, Tomkins admits it is an "emotional" watch.
