meantime part 6

Colin (Tim Roth, making his screen debut) and his brother Mark (Phil Daniels, who starred in Quadrophenia) are down and out. They live in a squalid flat with their unemployed father, Frank (Jeff Robert), and their put-upon mother, Mavis (Pam Ferris). They're on the dole, and Mark is constantly scrounging for cash and cadging drinks from his friends, among them Coxy (Gary Oldman in his screen debut), a skinhead.

Peter Wight, you may remember he also turned up in "Naked" (also directed by Mike Leigh) as Brian the security man who ends up having a lengthy and blackly humorous conversation about existentialism and the end of the world with Johnny (David Thewlis).
