Rapunzel is part of the Fairy Tales series – a modern anthology of four classic Fairy Tales for BBC One. Rapunzel is set in the competitive world of tennis and tells the story of failing male tennis player, Jimmy Stojkovic. Jimmy is persuaded by his errant father, Sava, to disguise himself as a woman in a final attempt to win the grand slam tennis final. The plan goes awry when Jimmy falls in love with the beautiful reigning champion, Billy Jane Brooke much to the horror of her over-protective mother.
