Episodes of Back of the Net will be released on Tuesdays after each Premier League round. Hosted by a team of three: legendary footballer Peter Crouch, comedian John Bishop and broadcaster Gabby Logan, Back of the Net is a feel-good football show for everyone that loves the Premier League. Each week the team will be joined by a live studio audience, and a heady mix of celebrity and football guests. They look back at the latest matches and forward to the next, with smart, humorous debate on the big talking points, and with a few games along the way. Back of the Net will also include features with football’s greatest names telling hilarious stories and revealing the secret talents of heroes from the sport world. In December 2019, Prime Video will offer live and exclusive Premier League matches available on Prime Video in the UK, completely free with a Prime membership.

Gabby Logan said: “I am beyond thrilled to become part of the Back of the Net team sitting alongside my old mate John Bishop and the wittiest footballer in the land, Peter Crouch. Football is about passion, skill and rivalries but ultimately it’s about people and their stories and there’s so much fun to be had around the beautiful game every week in the Premier League.” John Bishop commented: “Each week, I guarantee to give an extremely impartial, straight laced view of the recent champions of Europe.” Peter Crouch said: “I’m really excited to start this show with Gabby and John and I'm hoping it’s going to be a smooth transition from bench to sofa.” ‘While our live Premier League coverage in December will of course focus on the action, we wanted to bring back the humour and quirkiness of a studio show based on the nation’s favourite sport,” said Alex Green, MD Sports, Prime Video. “I’m absolutely thrilled that Peter, Gabby and John will be our regular hosts, offering their wit, banter and anecdotes, every week of the season.” “Working with incredible on and off screen talent, Back of the Net is the next in our offering of UK Original productions for Prime Video,” said Georgia Brown, Director EU Originals, Prime Video. “We’re so excited to bring what will be a hilarious, fun-filled show to our audiences weekly.” Back of the Net is an Amazon Original with Sony Pictures Television’s Human Media and Buzz 16.
