| 0:05.0 | If you haven't already seen it, Galactica is a brand new feature-length documentary |
| 0:09.0 | that gives you unprecedented access to the life and career of Caroline Weir, |
| 0:13.0 | Scotland and Rail Madrid's standout midfielder. |
| 0:16.0 | Need I say more than she's just a wizard with a wand of a foot, unreal free kick taker, and, my |
| 0:21.8 | biggest memory of wear, must be when she chipped Mary Earps not once, but twice, an absolute |
| 0:26.8 | dream of a player to watch. |
| 0:29.2 | Filmed in Madrid and back home in Scotland, Galactica is a rare and honest look into Caroline's |
| 0:33.5 | journey, from growing up dreaming of playing football to making it at the highest level of the |
| 0:37.9 | women's game. You'll hear from friends, family and teammates who've been with her every step of |

| 0:47.1 | see what it really takes to play at the top, this is one to watch. Watch the full documentary on |

| 1:12.3 | Just got from the fan park, which is absolutely buzzing with bars of fans, Arsenal fans, |
| 1:16.7 | even early in the morning. The city is definitely awash with colour and football fans, which is super |
| 1:21.5 | exciting. I think reflecting on the two teams that have ended up here, probably great from a commercial |
| 1:27.9 | point of view, from fans' point of view. You know they're going to travel, you know they're |
| 1:31.7 | going to bring the noise, bring the vibes, and we're definitely seeing that. So I'm really excited |
| 1:35.2 | to get to the stadium and see what it looks like there, see the noise, the atmosphere inside. |
