The beloved fictional soccer team at the heart of the series, nearly went by another name. "When we first wrote the pilot, it was called Greenwich FC as a placeholder," Hunt says. But when he, Jason Sudeikis (who plays the titular American college football coach tasked with turning around a floundering English Premier League team) and their locatio...
The Crown & Anchor is really the 300-year-old pub The Prince's Head, and it was one of the first places the showrunners saw, confirming Richmond was the place for them. "The Prince's Head just seemed like a perfect English bar," says Hunt, who recalls their initial visit there was a very Lasso-ian experience: "It was a Friday afternoon, but there w...
Steps from The Prince's Head is the narrow pedestrian lane known as Paved Court, where the front door to Ted's flat (number 9 1/2 on the show, but 11A in real life) is located. Visitors can browse the street's tiny mom-and-pop shops, including one selling AFC Richmond swag. Hunt says filming there has become a little busier recently. "We didn't rea...
Ted and Coach Beard's go-to take-away spot, located on Paved Court, is the very real Argentinian cafe, Chango Empanadas. Hunt says the tasty pastry pockets stuffed with beef, chicken or less traditional fillings like pumpkin and goat cheese "organically worked their way into the plot of the show" simply because they were a favorite of the cast and ...

"The Gaucho Steakhouse is really, really good," says Hunt, who recommends "their versi...
The Richmond players — including Roy, Jamie Tartt (Phil Dunster) and Dani Rojas (Cristobal Fernández) — had to film around the schedule of Hayes & Yeading United Football Club, whose home field, SkyEx Community Stadium, stands in for Richmond's practice pitch. "They're not using it every day by any means, so they were happy to have us," says Hunt. ...
The Greyhounds' stadium, Nelson Road, is actually Selhurst Park, the true home of the Premier League team Crystal Palace. While the actors had unlimited access to the field at SkyEx, the rules were a bit stricter at Selhurst. "That first scene where we see Nate in the pilot yelling 'Get off the grass, get off the grass!' That's true to life," Hunt ...
