El Corazón de Sergio Ramos

Four La Liga triumphs, four Champions League victories, two European Championships and a World Cup winner’s medal are among Ramos’ jaw-dropping list of honours.

As a defender in a Real Madrid and Spanish teams packed with midfield magicians and eye-catching forwards, Ramos’ incredible record in the last decade feels overlooked. And his reputation, rightly or wrongly, for bad behaviour on the pitch often overshadows his trophy cabinet.

Possibly because of this, Ramos is taking the unusual step of letting Prime Video’s cameras behind the curtain of his football club, home and family. Ramos gives the cameras an all-access pass to intimate and private moments with his wife Pilar Rubio and their three sons Sergio Jr, Marco and Alejandro.

Shedding light on the man behind the crunching tackles and thunderbolt headers, El Corazón de Sergio Ramos will hopefully be the first of many documentary series that get us a little closer to our footballing heroes.

Eat Race Win

Offering a unique and original angle on food TV, this Prime Video documentary follows the support crews in the Tour De France and in particular, Hannah Grant, the head chef for the cycling team Orica-Scott.

A hybrid sports and cooking series, the thrill comes from watching Hannah managing to deliver nutritionally perfect meals that are sourced from local markets and sources along the cycling route. The idea being that the meals will serve up physical and mental assistance as the cyclists get a taste for the regions.

A small window into the big business of sports nutrition, the show reveals how far we’ve come from the world’s greatest athletes munching on big bowls of grey pasta night after night.

Andy Murray: Resurfacing

Unlike previous documentaries and TV interviews with Murray, which focussed on his rise to competing with the all-time greats, Federer, Nadal and Djokovic, Andy Murray Resurfacing will explore the toughest and darkest years of the Scotsman's career.

This isn't a simple comeback story, it's a human story about a man unwilling to accept defeat.

Andy Murray has in the past shunned the spotlight, choosing privacy over stardom. Murray’s tennis has always been the talking point rather than his family.

For the first time, this series will scratch under the surface of the character who has always dug deep in his career – facing his toughest and roughest challenge yet.

"The film will take you on a journey through what were some of the lowest, most difficult periods of my life both physically and mentally, and will hopefully show and inspire viewers, that with the right mindset and work ethic, anything is possible," said Murray.

Take Us Home: Leeds United

Leeds United are the latest football club to get their own docu-series, signing a deal with Prime Video for their 2018-19 Championship season.

Take Us Home: Leeds United will follow the club's race to get back into the Premier League after a 15-year absence, which ultimately ended in failure.

The documentary will be narrated by avid Leeds United fan and Oscar-winner Russell Crowe.

The eventful season for the sleeping giant club was under the guidance of manager Marcelo Bielsa.

Bielsa, a 63-year-old coach who famously managed the national teams in Argentina and Chile as well as European clubs including Athletic Bilbao, Marseille, Lazio and Lille, had an immediate impact at Leeds United following his appointment in June 2018.

His unique style of play meant that the team, who finished thirteenth in 2017-18, were already top of the Championship midway through the 2018-19 season.

The docu-series will cover the highs and lows of the season with exclusive footage of the players and staff behind the scenes, and include moments such as the "spygate" scandal and the controversial uncontested goal in the April 2019 Aston Villa match.
