  • Well I'm fairly sure the film is set in Durham, so I presume the musical is too. At least that's what I understood from watching the film. Unless they just made references to people from Durham and they were from Newcastle themselves. It's that general area anyway.

  • Not seen the film in ages, and saw the musical about a year ago, so I just assumed it was Newcastle!

    I'm most likely wrong-though it was near enough! lol

  • Let's just both agree that Thatcher is a bitch and leave it at that? ;-)

  • Sounds about right! lol

    (Though in theory, I'm not actually old enough to remember her...) :o)

  • @timothydavey1

    You obviously had a Thatcherite education, minors are people under 16, the hard working brave people she shit on are miners!

  • @JeMs4LiFe

    Just clearing it up:

    The film is set in a fictional town in COUNTY Durham, and not in Durham the city. I guess the musical should be set in the same place... but I don't think it would be Newcastle because, if I remember the film well, an important part of it is an audition in Newcastle that Billy misses. Mind you I haven't seen the film in a few years so this could all be made up.

  • Chaps I am from northen england SO HEARS A MESSAGE TO ALL YOU LAZY MINORS GET A JOB LONG LIVE LADY THATCHER

  • I love this song, and i also love the broadway, in nyc

  • @entershikarirule My parents where tories before she came along and then they became libdems and now they don't know what they are.
