Neville Southall

Episode number: 2

Overview: Documentary following Neville Southall's unconventional rise to the top of professional football, and the events that shaped him into the idiosyncratic icon who famously once sat down next to the goalpost during half-time rather than leave the pitch with his team. Using rare and never-before-seen archive footage from his childhood, this documentary highlights the remarkable symmetry between his time playing senior men's football as a 12-year-old boy in Llandudno, and the twilight of his career in goal for Wales. Deep and revealing interviews with allies and close friends help Neville tell his own funny, surprising and emotional story.
