Where was Tina and Bobby’s honeymoon filmed?
Tina and Bobby’s honeymoon scenes were shot in Palma, Majorca - which is actually where the real life couple spent time after their wedding.
The series starts in the late 1950s, when Bobby first met Tina Dean in a nightclub in Ilford.
It then spans across to the 1980s, including Bobby’s first cancer diagnosis and the 1966 World Cup final.
The official synopsis for the series says: "Based on the memoirs of Tina Moore, this is the epic love story of football's original golden couple: an ordinary girl who falls for an ordinary boy only to be launched into an extraordinary life."
Now 75-years-old, Tina Moore had a lot to do with the making of the series and it was created from her very own memoirs, Bobby Moore: By The Person Who Knew Him Best.
She even worked as a script consultant and met with Michelle Keegan to help her get into character.
