Olly Murs’ road to football dreams, X Factor and the joys of fatherhood

By Auto Trader

Olly Murs brings bundles of fun and energy to this episode as he reflects on his upbringing in Witham, Essex, sharing how the area significantly shaped his life. The X Factor star speaks fondly of the town he grew up in and nearby Braintree where he spent much of his teenage years.

Driving in style in a Bentley Continental GT, we start the journey with Olly at Witham Town Football Club, where he bumps into someone who played a huge part in his early life. He takes us to his childhood home, reminiscing about long days spent playing sport outdoors. He reveals why a trip to Australia became the turning point that led to his X Factor audition, and he talks openly about his experience of panic attacks. And of course, there’s some singing and lots of laughter!
