The man playing Gareth Southgate in an upcoming BBC One drama about the football manager's time in the England hot seat says he's dreaming of a "big Hollywood finish" to Euro 2024.

After previously playing Southgate in the hit National Theatre stage show, "Dear England", Joseph Fiennes will be reprising his role as the England boss when the four-part series is adapted for BBC One next year.

The play followed the Three Lions' journey through the 2018 World Cup, the heartbreaking penalty shoot-out defeat in the final of Euro 2020 and the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
