The Crystal Palace documentary

When Eagles Dare, produced by Daniel van der Molen and Joseph Mainland, is a documentary which follows the behind the scenes activity at South London football club Crystal Palace during their 2012/13 campaign. Molen Media were granted access to Selhurst Park following the appointment of Ian Hollaway as first team manager in November 2012 and a roller coaster journey ensued. Following a nine-game winless streak the Eagles secured a play-off place on the final day of the season and went on to gain promotion to the Premier League, defeating rivals Brighton over two legs in the semi-finals and then Watford in the final at Wembley.
