Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll is a 2010 biographical film about English new wave musician Ian Dury (12 May 1942 – 27 March 2000), starring Andy Serkis as Dury. The film follows Dury's rise to fame and documents his personal battle with the disability caused by having contracted polio during childhood. The effect that his disability and his lifestyle have upon his relationships is also a focal point of the film. The title of the film is derived from Dury's 1977 7" single, "Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll".
Principal photography began on 29 April 2009 in Egham, Surrey and theatre footage was shot 1–3 June at Watford Palace Theatre.
