From Pele to Ronaldo, Maradona to Bobby Moore, and embracing not just the men's game but the women's tournaments too, this glossy three-part documentary takes an entertaining pick'n'mix approach to the football World Cup. 

It doesn't set out to tell a straightforward chronological history of the tournament but instead sets out to highlight great moments and individual players. The end result carries a hefty whiff of official promo film about it, but there's so much jaw-droppingly great football on display across the three episodes that you don't really mind.
