Alan Green travels with former prisoner Sedick Isaacs to Robben Island.

We hear how, despite the brutality and hardships, in-mates fought for the right to set up one of the most extraordinary football leagues - the Makana FA - which became a powerful symbol of resistance.

While on the island Alan visits Nelson Mandela's cell and the football pitch on which the in-mates played.

He also talks to another former prisoner Lionel Davis who speaks of the atrocities the in-mates faced on a daily basis, and Professor Chuck Korr who wrote a book about the Makana FA called 'More Than Just a Game'.
