The BBC is to air a new documentary series featuring behind-the-scenes footage at Premier League outfit Watford.

Behind The Scenes at Watford FC promises to "delve into the day-to-day lives of the players, coaches and executives" during their second season back in the top flight.

The four-part series is being filmed in November and December by Goalhanger Films, a production company owned by Gary Lineker, who will also narrate the programme.

Executive producer Tony Pastor said: "We've been given unprecedented access to the inner sanctum of the football club. Already we've been able to film in areas normally way off limits. I think it'll give football fans a real insight into the workings of a Premier League club."

The first episode will be made available online on December 1, with subsequent episodes following every Thursday.
