JONNY LEE MILLER - MILLER DOESN'T HAVE THE LEGS FOR ACTING ROLE

JONNY LEE MILLER's intensive training regime failed to prepare him for his role as cycling legend GRAEME OBREE in biopic THE FLYING SCOTSMAN, and the real life Obree was eventually brought in as a stunt double.

MILLER was thrilled to play the hero who rode a bike made out of washing machine parts to break the world hour-record in the 1990s, but was left embarrassed when his leg muscles didn't make the grade.

Obree says, "I'm the legs in the movie but Jonny did well.

"The film was a great experience and the scale of the thing was amazing. It's great to have a film made about your life and it's going to look really good."
