    Brief synopsis

    Royd Tolkien, great-grandson of J.R.R Tolkien, lost his brother Mike to ALS (Motor Neurone Disease) in 2015. But Mike, who was the more adventurous of the two brothers, left behind a bucket list of 50 things he wanted Royd to complete in his absence. Narrated by Benedict Cumberbatch, There's a Hole in my Bucket follows Royd's journey as he embarks on the ultimate adventure of adrenaline and emotion to fulfil his brother’s ambitions, raise awareness of ALS, and teach us to live for the moment and not wait until it is too late to reach for our dreams.
