United!
Overview
United! was a British television series which was produced by the BBC between 1965 and 1967, and was broadcast twice-weekly on BBC1. The series followed the fortunes of a fictional second division football team, Brentwich United. The football scenes were filmed on the grounds of Stoke City with Jimmy Hill acting as a technical advisor, and the efforts to achieve authenticity saw the show being criticised by the then management of Wolverhampton Wanderers, who complained that the series was based on their team.
This production, originally released in 1965, has captivated audiences with its unique storytelling. As a Scripted series, it brings a fresh perspective to the Drama genre, maintaining a strong viewer rating of 7.0 across its 4 seasons.
