Its leading figure was the young Paul Gascoigne - a player who had come to prominence with his hometown club Newcastle United and who now, upon England’s semi-final exit, captured the hearts of the nation. Gascoigne returned home to a hero’s welcome and became a superstar of international football. With his irrepressible spirit and extraordinary skills he was for a generation of players and fans the most captivating footballer they had ever seen. Gascoigne is the definitive story - in his own words - behind the inspired play on the pitch and the personal struggles and controversies off it. With revealing contributions from Gary Lineker, Jose Mourinho and Wayne Rooney, it tells one of sport’s most remarkable tales.

Jane Preston writes and directs this documentary about English footballer Paul Gascoigne. Centred around an extensive interview with the man, the programme follows Gascoigne from his beginnings in Newcastle to his starring role in the 1990 World Cup in Italy. Following his success on the pitch, the programme also highlights Gascoigne's personal struggles off the field that often saw him appearing in the national tabloids and in trouble with the authorities. With archive footage and contributions from famous football minds including Gary Lineker, José Mourinho and Wayne Rooney, the documentary features highlights from across Gascoigne's stellar career for his clubs and country.
