I will admit. I started watching the original because of the skinhead culture to which i was also a part of in the 80's, but but by the end of the movie, i had developed an appeal to the characters and the skinhead portion of it was secondary... 83, 86 and 88 are all fucking brilliant..The Storyline is incredibly addicting
This show is ok but its kind of an unecessary continuation of the movie. The movie was about skinhead culture and to then shift it to 86 once the most of the characters had stopped being skinheads kind of removes the essence of what the original film is about and much the same thing happened with Life on Mars, once the 70s cops were placed in 1980 in Ashes to Ashes they became irrelevant really becuase what made the show in the first place was the time period they were of, and so it is here
@bluejeckett Totally disagree, This is England was about exactly what the title says, the skinhead theme was secondary if anything to the relationships of the characters and the political backdrop of Britain during the Falklands.
@cryjesuscry The sequels were just as much part of the same theme, the backdrops deal heavily in the football culture in Britain(and the 86 FIFA cup which was largely related to the Falklands), British politics, subcultures, etc. Many of the characters continue being skinheads, and a large part of the story is about them making transitions from that life to adults and the difficulties they have in doing so(especially Woody). I seriously think you are missing the entire point of the movie/show
@bluejeckett who gives a shit about the skinhead trip? its only a fashion to begin with. ppl evolve, or at least should. wouldnt be interesting if they didnt
@pipedude23 Did you fucking watch the movie at all? Apparently not as you would see that Milky has been a part of the crew because he believes in the socialist aspects of the movement, not the racist ones. That's the same reason why Woody and the others accepted him.
I take it you didn't watch the scene where Combo asks him if he considers himself English or a Jamaican first.
@phildd0t Im not talking about THAT movie.. I'm talking about this one you idiot. They're completely different... "This is England '86" has nothing to do about the skinhead movement like "This is England" does. '86 is all fucking Dramatic bullshit.. the original one is all about skinheads.
@pipedude23 Actually the original This is England is about Shaun and the interactions and relationships of the people in the group of friends. It was made pretty clear that they weren't all a bunch of racist skinheads. Some of them were, and then they changed.
Sounds to me like you still don't have any clue what the director is going for with these.
Dammit. I was hoping to see more character development between Shaun and that Kirk Brandon wannabe before Shaun left and slept outside. Those two are much more interesting than those two exaggerated looking mods Woody and Lol. Her name describes them both really well.
Does anyone find it a 'coincidence' that the 2 men to fuck Woody n Shaun over are the only colored headz on the show and the 2 headz that got fucked in the original movie? Paybacks a bitch. LOL
I'm not sick or anything, but can anyone tell me how to see the rape scene from part 3. it's getting a lot of talk and i really want to see it. I also would like to see all of part 3 if anyone can post it or put a link.
I can't find the third episode :( Does anyone know where I can?
