Series was good but the novel was absoloutely addictive. Found the series just a little confusing, with too much going on at the same time. But the book I couldn't put down; same with every Martina Cole book, utterly compelling!
@beefybritish, yeah, I enjoyed the book more than the TV Series. I'm a huge Martina Cole fan, she is a fantastic writer! The first book I ever read by MC was Goodnight Lady, My Aunty lent me it and I finished it in two days flat! It's one of those books you can't put down. You should read it, trust me.
The Take was brilliant - Tom Hardy was absolutely superb. Surely one of the best UK actors and now starting to make his mark on a global scale. He has huge potential.
@ntombi123 Just buy the DVD. It's what I did. I hadn't even seen an commercial for it, just an ad on the side of a bus. I took one look at the cast and I knew I had to have it. £7 at HMV.
what is the song used in episode one when freddie returns home at the flat? There are people dancing in the fornt room and the song is used later in the same episode, please help!
brillient tom hardy is a fuckin gr8 actor only thing tht i wasent happy about is tht they didnt do some of bits the same as the book like hw freddie died wasent by maggy it was jimmy and patrica didnt die either but still was a gr8 drama as always by the british british dramas are the best!!
Bloody Brilliant. Please check out a funny short film on Youtube to find it type in 'Sarah Ryan Deluded.' Be sure to watch all four episodes and leave us your feedback. Thank You Kindly.
Not seen this unfortuinately but I have read the book - does Freddie get killed at the end of the TV version as he does in the book? Also his wife in the book is fat and slutty, nothing like the actress who portrayed here !
Sometimes I wish that the 'powers that be' would leave the original story intact - it's as bad as when they put loads of sex into a film of a classic book written before the turn of the century when sex is NEVER even mentioned!
Jesus what a horrible family - they should have all been put down at birth, yuk! Whytf Tom Hardy can't sort out his teeth is beyond me, he looks the same in real life as he does in this teethwise.
@S76N79 i hope tom doesn't go all hollywood & get his teeth fixed - i think they just add to his character, i love his cheeky grin, he is sexy as & a brilliant actor! :)
guys whats the song when he's walking into the club to see patricia and sydey? it's kinda opera at start then gets into a woman singing i loved it casn someone please tell em the song artist and name please?
....Amazing....just f**kin amazing!!!! Brilliant acting......the casting was just perfect.....just how I imagined it when I read the book........So well done......
I think Freddie deserved to die and that was strong of Maggie to kill him coz he rapped her. But it was sick of little freddie to kill little jimmy, he should'nt have done it!
what a show - tonights episode was just a perfect ending, but it seems like i am the one of teh only few who felt sorry for freddie and i actually wanted him to stay alive lol - a bit angry when he died, but oh well, still an absolute phenomenal performance by tom hardy as freddie jackson, i thought he was amazing in bronson. but this guy just gets better and better!
I disagree....Jimmy should have killed freddie and that guy in the Prison (i think his name was Ozzy) Should have gotten out and Freddie (before he is killed) should have Given him the most disgusting death in the book.
Was a agreat episode But disapointing When freddie died.
i think its soul central - strings of life, ive been trying to find it for past few days and i think thats the one, but i cant look back at the club scene to check :( hope that helps :)
agreed, thought the two first episodes were really good!! if anybody is interested, the song that is playing on this clip was remixed by 'HYBRID', it was called 'IN GOOD WE TRUST'. I'd like to know what version this is though!
Watched this last night needed a gap to fill after "Ashes to Ashes" finished & i'm glad to say this did the trick (although gutted it's only 4 episodes long).
just watched warrior tom hardy is solid in it i recommend it to everyone. class actor
