This film, based on and shot in Langley, Middleton.
Having grown up on Langley, this film is as real as it was.
Jim Allen, a local writer, lived in the heart of this community, so he knew it inside out. (I even had the pleasure of going to school with his daughter Catherine).
Bruce Jones and Ricky Tomlinson set this film a light from the first frame.
Even the local gangsters get a cameo role! You should not be disappointed with this film.
Nothing much has changed in the town, just a few more boarded up houses and demolished houses.
