The programme however was received well by a number of fans who believed it was a good way to give Liverpool some good press. The coverage of the Liverpool vs Roma game in Boston gave fans more of an insight into what went on when staff and players alike prepare on a pre-season tour.[4] ## Episodes No. Title Original release date 1 "Silver Shovel" 16 September 2012 (2012-09-16) (UK) 2 "On the Road" 23 September 2012 (2012-09-23) (UK) 3 "Anfield Calling" 30 September 2012 (2012-09-30) (UK) 4 "To Bleed Red" 7 October 2012 (2012-10-07) (UK) 5 "Walk On" 21 October 2012 (2012-10-21) (UK) 6 "Red Crusade" 26 October 2012 (2012-10-26) (UK) ## References 1. **[^](#cite_ref-1)** ["9pm: UK debut of Being: Liverpool"](https://web.archive.org/web/20120924012559/http://www.liverpoolfc.com/news/latest-news/9pm-uk-debut-of-being-liverpool).
