THE trailer for a forthcoming film about Blur’s reunion includes a rare view inside Walthamstow Stadium.

No Distance Left to Run documents a series of concerts by the band this summer and includes candid interviews with members about splitting up and getting back together.

Racing at the Stow famously featured on the artwork for Blur’s breakthrough album, Parklife, and a shot of the stadium now (pictured) shows it overgrown and dilapidated.

Lead singer Damon Albarn was born in Leytonstone, where he spent his early years.

The film is due to be released in January.
