Judy Murray and Rosemary Reed on "Driving Force"

"The sporting word, historically, has always been about men, so we're always playing catchup. And it's one of the reasons why, getting the chance to do this, it just really shines a spotlight on what still needs to be done."

Co-producers Judy Murray and Rosemary Reed join the show to discuss their new SkyTv docuseries "Driving Force". They help tell the stories of 10 female athletes who have succeeded in a challenging climate.

Behind every successful athlete is a driving force, and uncovering that is the focus of the 11-part series, which began airing in late November. The first episode tells the story of Murray raising two world No. 1's in Scotland, and then she becomes the host for conversations with 10 female British Olympic athletes. 

Murray explains how she embraced the role of interviewer and was able to relate to the athletes quite naturally thanks to her years of experience. Reed, the founder of Power of Women TV, shares what she learned from Murray, and why the project was so enlightening to them both.

Beyond the docuseries, Reed aims to bolster females in the film industry while Murray hopes to encourage more females to get into coaching. Through their own stories, they help explain why women need to stick together.
