Episode 1

Chapter I: Words And Music

June 25, 2021. With 16 days to go before Richard Branson flies into space, the entrepreneur reflects on his early years and the influence of his iconoclasic mother. As a dyslexic teenager, Branson left school to create a magazine called Student, which led to a mail-order record business and, eventually, Virgin Records and Virgin megastores.

Episode 2

Chapter II: Atlantic

In the 1980s, as the success of Virgin Records takes off, Branson begins exploring the full potential of the brand -- leading to the launch of Virgin Atlantic. To attract media attention to his new airline, Branson attempts a series of dangerous stunts, including breaking the trans-Atlantic speed record by boat and a death-defying balloon adventure.

Episode 3

Chapter III: Fight Or Flight

Despite a rock start, Virgin Atlantic prevails in a libel suit against rival British Airways. Chasing even greater ambitions, Branson announces plans to develop a spaceflight company, Virgin Galactic, kicking off what would become a decade-long pursuit.

Episode 4

Chapter IV: Space

In the run-up to Virgin Galactic's first passenger flight in July 2021, the company's arduous history is examined -- from its conception and test flights to a controversial bid to obtain government support during the Covid-19 pandemic. After nearly two decades of research, testing and setbacks, an undeterred Branson heads to space.
