This is England 86

[Athlon]

Just awesome T.V. brilliant acting, Combo was superb.

Best thing on the box this year (to date) IMHO there should be more of this gloves off style drama.

[10JH]

Great finish to an excellent series.

[fiveoclockhero1]

Just magnificent, the best thing I have EVER seen on TV and to cap it all Bitterest Pill this episode after English Rose last episode. Hopefully there is more to come.

[Man in Black]

Fantastic TV, very Dark

Think i'll watch Control now to cheer myself up!

[clarkmagpie]

Well that was pretty harrowing stuff.
Bloody brilliant though.

Horrific & compelling in equal measure.

Writing, acting & directing stunning.

Not quite the nostalgic trip down memory lane i had envisiged prior to watching the original film & subsequent series.

I've not read the entire thread so appologies if i'm repeating someone else's posts but 'Milky' is Shimy Type R on Scoobynet.

This is England - and we can still make excellent (if not the best) film and television on a shoe string budget!

[Slyjoe]

Well, that was fking disturbing and will no doubt stay with me for some time.......
I don't usually watch TV, however, I'm kinda glad I did this time.

[Antony Moxey]

Jesus that was intense.

[Blue Meanie]

Have to wait for it to become 'available'... Not showing in the US. Can't wait!

[Rob13]

Was last nights worse than last weeks?

[Republik]

Not quite as bad, still pretty harrowing mind you. Anyone who does anything like that in real life deserves to be *plot spoiler removed*.

Mod edit just in case someone hasn't seen it yet...

I reckon so. The scene just before Combo came into Lol's parents' place near the end was truly horrifying.

[cbrown88]

Was pretty brutal to watch the last two episodes, but at the same time, fantastic viewing.

No.

I do not think I will watch anything else on TV this year which will be as horrible as that bit from episode 3.

Obviously episode 4 had some very dark moments

[Pothole]

st, was that it? Too many unanswered questions!!!

I know! Seemed to wrap up in a flash.

I presume it gives them a reason to do the next one quickly.

[Pothole]

bring it on....this should be a HBO-style 7 or 8 series job.

Great telly indeed. Oh to be a kid again back in the 80's, when your furtive fumblings with chicks who looked like Smell and Trev were fantastic!
