Crystal Palace are the next Premier League club to be the subject of a fly-on-the-wall documentary series.

Channel 4 have begun the filming for a six-part series focusing on the work of the south London club's academy.

Cameras will be recording footage over the next year for the series, which has the current working title The Academy.

Included will be behind-the-scenes access to the climax of this season for their title-chasing under-18s and also their under-23s who have qualified for the end of season play-offs, with promotion to the Premier League 2 Division 2 play-offs.
