Episode summary:

Jobby Crossan's trophy shop has seen better days – its gold and silver trophies are just waiting to be won, the bespoke medals, pins and badges all need to be engraved – a place of hope and aspiration where sporting dreams can come true or be dashed. But what makes this sports shop all the more remarkable is that despite its rundown demeanour, its owner is none other than Jobby Crossan - a living soccer legend who's shared a pitch with George Best, Eusebio, di Stefano, Brian Clough and many more footballing greats.We will follow the prizes, the cups, the medals, the trophies and the awards as they make their way out of the trophy shop and into homes across the city and beyond, giving a unique insight into the rich, diverse and engaging local sporting communities.
