Brilliant. You might need a tissue.

In that case, I'll wait until my wife goes out before I watch it.

That was absolutely brilliant, a real tear jerker in parts.

 

[Stat Brother]

Oh Toby Jones was interviewed by Richard Bacon on Tuesday, available on podcast and I-Player.

It's well worth a listen, before or after watching, as he adds a lot of context to the drama.

In years gone past I really had the hots for Gemma Jones (Neil's mother).Oh dear! Absolutely brilliant programme.

Agree with everyone here. Best TV I've seen for ages...

 

[Mellor 3 Ward 4]

Just watched it. Excellent.

I always thought of Macari as a big of a dick. How wrong I was.

 

[Psychobilly freakout]

Glad I recorded that, it was fantastic and made me think what the hell do I have to moan about..... Great and restores my faith in humanity.

[1066familyman]

Thanks so much for the heads up on this. One of the best films I've seen in a very very long time.

From a football forum perspective - If I was a Stoke City fan I'd be chuffed to bits with that effort.

 

[Beach Hut]

Bloody brilliant

 

[paul wickens]

Just watched this on BBC iplayer. Fantastic! A real triumph of the human spirit.

x2 - I think it will (deservedly) pick up a shedload of awards, Toby Jones is outstanding. One of the those rare films that leaves you with a warm glow.
