There was a time when footballers faced three options upon retiring: management, punditry or being a pub landlord. Now you are more likely to find footballers being daytime staples, fronting hard-hitting documentaries or Saturday night shiny floor shows. How did this happen and why do audiences flock to shows featuring talent more used to making tackles than reading autocues? Charlie Webster will talk to household name footballers about their own experiences of making the transition from the pitch to the small screen.

Session Produced by Harjeet Chhokhar
