Yes, I am looking forward to it. The fillm was very good. Hard hitting, and a bit much in some parts, but very honest.

The black guy with the big sideburns in the film, was/is a user on here. Don't know he will be in the series. Didn't he die in the film?

Personally I think that Dead Mans Shoes was a far better film.

This is England started well but lacked strong direction and fizzled out.

Still better than 97.6% of Hollywood films

Bearing in mind it was done on a shoestring, filmed on location in Nottingham and Cleethorpes
The director was buying and selling cars on ebay to finance it

Dead Man's Shoes - Budget £723,000, filmed on location in Matlock

This is England - Budget £1,500,000, filmed on location in Cleethorpes

In fact the budget of Shoes is only so high because half the equipment got nicked
