Youtube Original Series JACK WHITEHALL: TRAINING DAYS Now Live

Episode One of Jack Whitehall: Training Days is now live, featuring José Mourinho and Gareth Bale as you've never seen them before. Released today, exclusively on Jack's Youtube channel, the British comedian seeks the mentorship of Manchester United manager José Mourinho as he undergoes a disastrous driving lesson on UK streets.

Never one to shy away from conflict, the two trade insults as Jack tests the humour of the famously fiery manager, prompting Mourinho to give as good as he gets, sarcastically wishing Whitehall "good luck" as he storms off midway through filming.

From driving in a car to driving with a golf club, the comedian then attempts to cut off Gareth Bale's famous ponytail while the pair work on their golf swings, before turning him into a human waxwork to prank local tourists.

Jack Whitehall: Training Days is YouTube's first-ever European-centric Youtube Original Series based on an original concept developed and produced by Fulwell 73 and directed by Fulwell partner Gabe Turner, the showrunner for the programme. The series celebrates the biggest names in football, as well as some of YouTube's most popular UK-based creators, including Joe Sugg, Manny, Joe Wicks and The F2 Freestylers. Fulwell's James Corden, Ben Winston, Gabe Turner and Leo Pearlman are executive producers.

Jack Whitehall says: "One of the great things about comedy is getting out of your comfort zone, so I certainly made it my job to get these football stars out of theirs. It's been great working with them on Training Days and showing fans a different side to them. Filming this series has been a great warm-up to the World Cup and I hope you enjoy watching as much as I did making it."
