Background

The show centres around the fictional Earls Park Football Club (nicknamed 'Sparks'). The Series was produced by Liz Lake, Claire Phillips and Cameron Roach. Its Executive Producer was Brian Park. The show began as an ensemble of three different 'types' of football couple. However, from the third series on, the show more or less revolved around the character Tanya Turner (Zoe Lucker). Tanya left halfway through Series Four, which resulted in a massive ratings slump. Although Lucker returned midway through the next series, she was unable to raise ratings as much as expected. This was in part because many viewers had swiched to BBC1's Hotel Babylon. Tanya Turner (formerly Laslett and Frederico) is the protagonist of the ITV British drama Footballers Wives, played by English actress ZÃ¶e Lucker. ... This article is about a television drama. ...

She has a secret fling with Sparks' mid-fielder and ruthless bad boy Jason Turner, who is married to the beautiful, yet vile, Tanya Turner, TV's megabitch. Tanya is too busy to worry about the affair as she tries to save her husband's job when club owner Frank Laslett buys Italian stallion Sal Biagi, who takes Jason's job.

In Amber's last and surely campiest scene, she is shown wearing what looks like one of Cher's old costumes. In the struggle, she ended up shooting Roger Webb, who loses his sight. Amber was then sectioned to a mental institute for bleeding on the brain and left the show! Shannon now divorced from Harley and feeling lonely, was delighted to hook up with new Earls Park signing Callum Watson. Shannon moved Callum in; however, his interfering mother came with him and caused havoc. New characters included Tremaine Gidigbi and Liberty Baker, who married in Episode 5 in an Egyptian-themed, typically over-the-top wedding. Liberty, a top supermodel, looking shockingly similar to Naomi Campbell, was caught out by the press having a lesbian affair with her P.A. Urszula Rosen, and then was shamed by starring in a Japanese advert that made her out to be a cannibal. Tanya returned, once Amber was out of the way, and set about seducing the latest star of Earls Park, Paulo Bardoso. Tanya went head to head with none other than super bitch Joan Collins aka Alexis Morell Carrington Colby Dexter Rowan as Eva De Wolffe. Tanya's joy at snatching Paulo from Eva de Wolffe's clutches was short-lived; he was taken to a mental hospital after a breakdown, and she found herself penniless. Garry Ryan, the new club chairman, kills Roger and Jackie leaves to live with her recovering son Kyle in Australia. Tanya discovered evidence that proved Garry's involvement. However, as series five ended, Garry was offering Tanya some cocaine laced with poison, just as she was trying to come to a "settlement" with him over the tape recording that proved he caused Roger's death.
