    Episode 2: Paul Clarke

    Kilmarnock FC 'Hall of Fame' inductee Paul Clarke looks back at a shock Scottish Cup victory in 1978, before reflecting on his 11-year career at Scotland's oldest professional football club.
    A true 'one-club player', Paul speaks about his roles with the club as a captain, coach and, these days, the Former Players' Association. 
    This episode is much more than the story of one match; it is an insight into a unique era of the club.

    Episode 3: Tom Black

    Episode 3: Tom Black

    A stylish left back. A scorer of vital goals. A Kilmarnock cult hero.
    Tom Black revisits the 1993/94 Scottish Premier Division season, and one game in particular: the last game at the old Rugby Park.
    Multi-million pound redevelopment was about to begin, but would the club open the new stadium in the top division...or was it going to be relegation after only one season back with the elite? With two games left, difficult opponents in Rangers and Hibs lay in wait.

    Episode 4: Bobby Ferguson

    Episode 4: Bobby Ferguson

    From catching balls on Cannon Hill in Ardrossan to keeping out Pele, Bobby Ferguson's career scaled the heights.
    In the final episode of Series 1 of 'The Big Match', Kilmarnock's league-winning goalkeeper reflects on an era when the club went toe-to-toe with Europe's best.
    Bobby's Big Match is the famous last-day decider in April 1965. Needing to beat league leaders Hearts by two goals on their own patch in Edinburgh, Killie led 2-0 when a late, late chance fell for the hosts...
    Bobby talks about the special moments as Scotland's number one, being a student of his art...and mixing with football and showbiz royalty in a 13-year West Ham United career.
    A Kilmarnock FC legend.

    Episode 5: Ronnie Hamilton

    Only one player in Kilmarnock FC's 150-year history has been the top scorer for the league champions...Ronnie Hamilton.
    Still the club's youngest-ever player, Ronnie talks about the special night in 1964 when Killie were five goals ahead against Celtic. The 5-2 victory set a marker for the Ayrshire men, on route to the club's sole league title.
    As player, European goalscorer, title-winner, coach, board member, Chairman, Hall of Fame inductee and supporter, Ronnie Hamilton's service to Kilmarnock can be counted in decades.

    Episode 6: Tommy McLean

    Episode 6: Tommy McLean

    Kilmarnock FC Historian John Livingston puts it best:
    "Tommy McLean was the star of the greatest ever game played at Rugby Park."
    A winger blessed with high-precision accuracy in his delivery, the Killie number 7 is one of the all-time Kilmarnock greats. Tommy talks about his involvement in the greatest comeback in Scottish football history: Kilmarnock's 1964 recovery from 4-0 down against European legends, Eintracht Frankfurt.
