A Children's Film Foundation Production. Based on the book by Bernard Ashley.
A classic and brilliant C.F.F. production from the early eighties. One of my absolute favorites. It was last broadcast (to my knowledge) on the BBC in 1990.
Starring:
Jack McNicholl as Terry Harmer
Neville Watson as Les Hicks
Jeffrey Ward as Mick
Matthew Barker as Denis
Brian Coyle as "Plastic-Head"
Susan Jameson as Terry's Mum
Martin Fisk as Mr Harmer Terry's Dad
Margery Mason as Terry's Gran
Tracey Ann-Morris as Tracey / Terry's Sister
Helen Keating as Mrs Hicks / Les's mother
Marianne Stone as Mrs. Parsons
Directed by Frank Godwin
Most of the cast and crew still work in film and television today. Further information about the cast and crew can be found here at the Internet Movie Database (IMDB): http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0354096/f...
If anyone has any further information about the cast and where they are today, (particularly Jack McNicholl) or were involved in the production I'd love to know. Please post a comment or send an email.
