Gary is joined by his former England teammate Terry Butcher to discuss his powerful new documentary, Butcher: Invisible Wounds. Terry opens up about the devastating loss of his son, Chris, and explains how sharing his story in the documentary has helped him cope with his grief and continue the healing process.

The pair also look back on Terry's remarkable football career, from the glory years at Ipswich Town and Rangers to his unforgettable experiences with England. They revisit some of the most iconic moments in English football history, including the infamous "Hand of God" match against Argentina, the Italia '90 World Cup campaign that saw England come closer than any side since 1966 to lifting the trophy and Terry's legendary blood-soaked performance against Sweden that became one of the game's most enduring images.

Butcher: Invisible Wounds airs on ITV4 on Tuesday 9 June at 10pm.

Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey is in cinemas July 17. Book tickets from June 15.

Gary and Micah review the Champions League final as Arsenal had their dreams dashed in a penalty shootout and PSG became only the second team to win the competition in back-to-back seasons

Did the referee get the big penalty calls right? Was it a victory for PSG's style of football over Arsenal's attempt to rely on their defence? And what sort of player does Arteta need to add to his squad in order to go one better next season?

We also react to the news of Liverpool deciding to part ways with Arne Slot and reportedly replace him with Andoni Iraola. Have they been harsh on Slot considering he won the Premier League just 12 months ago? Or are they getting a clear upgrade in Iraola after the brilliant job he did with Bournemouth this season?

Plus there's congratulations for Crystal Palace and Aston Villa after their European triumphs and Gary & Micah tell us all about their weekend rubbing shoulders with some genuine A-list stars
