TGU Interview: Jonathan Grade

The Gentleman Ultra founder Richard Hall and site editor Emmet Gates spoke to Jonathan Grade. Jonathan was first runner, and later producer, of the legendary Channel 4 show Gazzetta Football Italia from 1993 to 2002.

Jonathan has recently released a book, titled: Golazzo: The Football Italia Years.

In our exclusive interview, Jonathan recounts his remarkable time working on the show, interacting with the world’s greatest players, why the show was such a success in the UK, when he thought the show hit its peak, and what led to its eventual downfall at the beginning of the 2000s.

If you were a fan of the show (who wasn’t?), then you’ll really enjoy this!
