00:14Built in Birmingham, Brady and the Blues will premiere on Amazon Prime on August 1st, chronologising the club's record-breaking League One title-winning season.
00:24The five-part docuseries features interviews with key figures such as Chris Davis, Jay Stansfield, club owner Tom Wagner and Brady himself.
00:35Discussing the series on his blog, Brady said,
00:37Built in Birmingham is an effort to reach beyond BCFC's incredible hardcore blue-collar fan base and show people what we're all about.
00:45It highlights what it takes to win and what we're doing inside the team to make winning part of the culture.
00:51Birmingham is a city with a team that has seen better days but is full of people who show the will and desire to struggle and strive daily for success.
01:01As values are contagious, our hope is that the docuseries will inspire everyone who watches it to join our community and strengthen their own.
01:11The Blues drew inspiration from Wrexham's Disney Plus documentary Welcome to Wrexham.
01:16Brady playfully took a jab at Wrexham's co-owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, adding,
01:23We believe we can build a global community around Birmingham City that rivals organisations like the Savannah Bananas and the All Blacks,
01:32and maybe one day surpasses those that Hollywood actors and what they're doing at Wrexham AFC.
01:37After Brady became a minority stakeholder, the Blues endured relegation under Wayne Rooney's management but bounced back spectacularly with significant transfer investment to cleats the League One title with record points and a strong sense of renewed ambition.
01:53Birmingham and Wrexham will meet again in the Championship next season, both chasing Premier League promotion with built-in Birmingham Brady and the Blues set to give fans a unique insight into the club's journey so far starting August 1st.
