Trent Crimm: The Independent
30 March 2023
The third episode and it is clear that both Ted Lasso and Coach Beard have a plan.

The team captain Roy Kent has been identified as the person who could bring real leadership in the dressing room. Someone who could keep the ego of Jamie Tartt in check.

Jamie and his gang like to bully Nathan, who has tactical insights that Ted makes use of.

As for Rebecca Welton. Given her newspaper expose has not gone as planned. She has arranged journalist Trent Crimm to spend a day with Ted. Hoping that Trent will do a hatchet job.

Instead Trent ends up being charmed by Ted, he even ends up liking Ted as they eat curry that is just too hot.

I did think there were just a few oddities in the episode. Just like those old 1960s American television series that show a bit of Californian and pass it off as quaint England.

There were scenes here written by Americans thinking it would pass muster in the UK. Roy Kent swearing in front of young school kids did look weird.
