BBC Three has launched Taxi To Training, a new eight part series fronted by comedian, choirboy and aspiring goalkeeper, Lloyd Griffith.
The new series will offer audiences unparalleled access to some of the Premier League’s biggest stars via a behind the scenes taxi ride to their training ground. Whilst on-route in Lloyd’s battered hatchback, the players open up on a personal level, take part in a number of challenges and share a couple of their favourite anecdotes about their fellow professionals.
Episode one featuring Watford FC captain, Troy Deeney is available on BBC Three here with the remaining seven episodes to follow across the remainder of the season.
Damian Kavanagh, Controller of BBC Three, says: “Taxi To Training will transport audiences to the passenger seat of a Premier League footballer’s journey to work, balancing candid insight with comedy via some of the Premier League’s famous faces.”
Tony Pastor, Executive Producer of Goalhanger Films, adds: "If you think professional footballers have a great life working a few hours a day, earning a fortune and having a bit of fun, this series will do nothing to change your mind."
Taxi to Training is made by Goalhanger Films and produced by Gabriella Saper.
