this is england , by Warm Gun on Sept 14, 2010 23:11:47 GMT 1, I find that shows like this are more about the atmosphere and the characters than a strong driving plot. I don't care if it never kicks off, I could watch it for ages!
I've got a feeling that it might be building up for strong finish, just like the film although who knows.
Tension is starting to slowly build and we all know that scouse nutter is on his way soon......

Prediction for next week, Bango will announce that he's gay and in love with a one armed dwarf called Arthur.

I'll be very surprised if the last episode makes up for this below par 4 hours. Should have just left it as it was.
Never go back.

I know they want him to look like his dad but come on. Completely unrealsitic and that scrap last night was a tad Benny Hill.

I thought it was great, great finish. Tough. And I don't agree with the ones that kept saying it's full of stereotypes... Not disappointed.

this is england , by Coach on Sept 28, 2010 23:16:40 GMT 1, Well I thought that was superb. Really hard hitting. I thought the film-making tecnique of having gentle music playing during the most harrowing scenes worked well. Whole thing had bags of atmosphere. Jumped from comedy to tragidy so smoothly. And the final touch of the opening cords of the bitterest pill was inspired. Quality. All just imo of course.

this is england , by rowan on Sept 29, 2010 8:51:28 GMT 1, This series was really hard hitting and not the jolly little adventure i'd expected.
When the first episode aired i had a convo with my grannie about how good the program was and she mentioned she'd sky plus'd the rest... Jesus i hope she never watched them!!
I'd hate to think of this 70+ old woman who takes down recipes from GMTV watching someone get molested by thier dad!!
But i thought it was fantastic...
