I recorded the film and have series linked the rest.

The subject matter could easily offend and therefore affect enjoyment. The series should be interesting.

I really enjoyed the film which had a great story and an excellent cast whose characters maintained your interst. I will watch the series in two sessions after it finishes next week.

I'm really glad Shane Meadows made the cureent '86' follow up series and possibly a '90' series in the future (see here).

Anyone interested in follow Shane Meadows work can follow his forum here.

For anyone interested in Gavin Clark, here is some good news (on page 2 Smile)

I watched the first instalment of the series last night... brilliant - best telly in ages and complemented the alan davies nostalgia trip nicely.

When I was young all the nostalgia programmes were about the 60s - suddenly they are all about the 80's. I am clearly not young any more!!
