Produced by Fulwell73, Sunderland 'Til I Die follows SAFC throughout the 2017/18 season, which saw them tackle life in the Championship following relegation from the Premier League.

The eight-part series begins with last summer's pre-season friendly against Celtic, and continues through to the club's second consecutive relegation to League One - or "Division Three" in old money - and Stewart Donald's takeover.

Filming is ongoing for a second season, with a select number of SAFC fans given a glimpse at potential trailer footage at a special screening, held at the Stadium of Light on Wednesday.

Further details have not yet been confirmed.

Sunderland manager Jack Ross has recently spoken about working in front of the cameras - and has revealed he hopes to deliver the "perfect ending" for any further episodes as the season draws to a close.

Who are Fulwell73?

The production company Fulwell73 was set up in 2005 by lifelong Sunderland fans Gabe and Ben Turner, Leo Pearlman and Ben Winston. They take their name from the Fulwell stand in Roker Park, and the famous FA Cup win for Sunderland against Leeds.
