Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for anyone who loves a strong character drama. If you loved Peaky Blinders, start here.
The mood
Thoughtful and character-driven.
The pace
One season: easy to finish in a weekend or two, hour-long episodes, about 5 hours in all.
What might put you off
Nothing much for most grown-ups.

Shaun, Harvey, Gadget, Trev and Kelly hit up the nightlife of raves and ecstasy. Woody and Lol are happy, living together with their kids and Combo is still in prison. But things slowly change. This is the year 1990 and This is England.
