This is England 86 (Spoilers)

Good Post :)

Well Said. I said similar. There were lots of "groups" and some stayed die hard faithful to their music, trend, dress style etc.,
The mid 80's was a bit of a Mish-Mash of styles.
 
Woody was my favourite character in the movie but in this show he is annoying me so much. Not good, the whole show isn't near as good as the movie. Shame, I was looking forward to it.
 
Totally agree, best episode yet - by far!
Aside from the silly Scooter Gang part :rolleyes:, the funny bits were actually funny and as for the Rape Scene :eek:, me and my OH sat there dumbstruck for a good few minutes after. Brilliantly acted!
 
Nah, there's probably a quid's worth of entertainment in it.

It's not the award-reaping marvel that a lot of people seem to have deluded themselves it ought to be though.
 
Thanks, I just think that it's such a great film that I wouldn't want it ruined for anyone ;)

Combo's motivations for attacking Milky also look like more than racism if you watch what happens prior to the attack, esp. in the view of his family relationships
 
As an aside what's the comedy thing that Steven Graham was in with various druggy/waster types, I think he played a plastic villain/walter mitty type in it.

It's a vague memory, as you can tell :)
I just remember his face.
 
The last two episodes were much better than the first two I thought but can't understand people wanting a longer series as they hardly had a story as it was, the two lame soap-opera style failed weddings, the scooter gang, meggy's heart attack, Shaun's mum in bed with the newsagent and Gadget's relationship were pretty much Shameless-style filler for the main and well-done evil dad storyline.
 
I though that was excellent last night.

The feeling of dread as soon as Trev came into the house, knowing that it could only end in tears......

Horrible, horrible scene, but has already been pointed out, probably very realistic and portrayed very well.
I felt sick watching and had to stop myself from turning it off.

Combo's back!! At first I thought next week he'd take out Lol's old man, but maybe it's too cliched for Shane Meadows.
There'll certainly be fireworks, that's for sure.

And I was soooo gutted for Woody, he just wan't his Lollypop back :(
