There’s always an odd feeling as you head towards the end of a Welcome to Wrexham series. You know what the result is going to be, and yet somehow, are still drawn along for the ride. The editing is extremely good to ratchet up the tension even when the events have long since taken place and everyone’s moving on to the next objective.

But I have to say, this third series was really good - that nice balance of football alongside community stories, and some surprising team-related bios as well. The match photographer who hadn’t been to a game, the drummer who travels around the country, the men’s support group, and of course, the 100-year-old fan. The episodes felt more together, more coherent - there were fewer of them and of a consistent duration and release schedule which always helps.

I’ve written before about how great this show is so I don’t need to repeat, only to say that I’m really glad there’s a fourth series commissioned because it feels like there’s still much to be gotten out of this adorable Welsh city - as well as watching the team struggle (for surely they must?) in their step up to another league.

The humour and humility in this show are what make it though. I don’t think you can give praise stronger than revelling in Humphrey Ker’s final words of the entire series:

I’m excited about League One.

But I also think there is enormous scope to fuck this up beyond all recognition.

Can’t wait to find out!
