Freddie Flintoff's Field of Dreams Season Three has been confirmed for third season
Hit BBC documentary Freddie Flintoff's Field of Dreams has been renewed for a third season after nearly 3.5 million viewers tuned in for each night of the second series of the show.
Field of Dreams Season 2 saw Flintoff and the boys head to India for a series of challenging experiences in the city of Kolkata with the teenagers from Preston visiting India for the first time.
Now OLBG look at special odds for the series with betting sites not yet offering odds, but our industry expert looks at what could happen in the future of the show including the chances of it being renewed for a fourth season.
England cricket legend Jimmy Anderson could appear on the third series which is set to take place in Lancashire once again, with a 33% chance that we see England's greatest ever bowler on the show.
Calls for Flintoff to become 'Sir Freddie' have also been common across social media while the second series aired on the BBC and the latest odds make it 8/1 that it happens on the King's New Year's Honours list.
| Freddie Flintoff's Field of Dreams Specials | Odds* | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Field of Dreams renewed for fourth season | 1/2 | 66.7% |
| Jimmy Anderson to appear on season three of Field of Dreams | 2/1 | 33.3% |

What the expert says...
Flintoff will lead his boys to Blackpool for a more local trip this time around
The dream continues for Freddie and the boys this year with filming already expected to be underway for series three of the hit show as Flintoff takes his boys more local this time.
The Preston lads are expected to take the short trip to Blackpool for the third season of the show and use their experience in the first two seasons to help lads closer to home.
It's expected that we'll see the same faces appear on the third season including Afghan refugee Adnan and rapper Hemi who both had big emotional stories on the show.

Show was nearly cancelled after Flintoff's crash while filming Top Gear
Despite Freddie Flintoff's Field of Dreams being such a massive success for the BBC, we almost didn't see it take place following the horrific crash that Flintoff suffered while filming Top Gear.
Flintoff was involved in a high-speed crash at Dunsfold Airfield in Surrey back in December 2022 which left to life-altering injuries and reportedly saw the BBC reach a multi-million pound settlement with the presenter and former England player.
The ex-England captain was shown struggling on the latest series of Field of Dreams as he looked to continue his life following the crash, but opened up around his anxiety in the aftermath of it happening.
Luckily for viewers though despite the show being put back we did eventually see the second series of Field of Dreams air on the BBC and the emotional scenes have been huge for the BBC's ratings.
