The English Disease | Trailer

There was a time when football hooliganism was everywhere. For decades it dominated headlines, merging the two things England loves most: football and fear.

Over the course of six episodes, writer Sam Diss digs deeper – beyond the stereotypes and tabloid headlines – to understand what first brought people to this violent, sprawling subculture, and how it has forced its way back into our society today.

This is the untold story of The English Disease.
