aye & cut to pieces pc bloody brigade
I watched the first two series on YouTube recently and I don't think it was cut as I was surprised at some of the things they came out with that you wouldn't get away with these days.

Also, did drinking on building sites used to be a thing? I couldn't believe they were drinking on the job, especially in such a dangerous place.
 
I think pat roach had a small part in all of the first three Indiana Jones films.
The bloke who plays trev in series two was later in an episode of Grange Hill as football hooligan.
The bloke who played Ali the cafe owner in east Enders appeared in a scene in series one where the wages are being given out.
The iconic trainers moxey wears in Spain (the Nike omega flames) are finally getting ready released this year.
Oz and Dennis did a public information video as their AWP characters for aids awareness (it’s on YouTube and is actually a canny watch).
The bloke who plays Martin in the second series who has the scrap in cannibals is sammy Johnson who is the ‘Sunday for sammy’ gadgie (also played ‘stick’ in spender)
Oz’s manky underpants were actually Kevin whatleys. The producers saw Kevin cleaning his car with them and thought they’d be an ideal prop for oz to wear.

Aye, it was in Holland in the early 80's we used to have a van came round the site every day selling sausages, meatballs and all that kind of stuff plus bottles Heineken. There was a load of Gypsies working on our site (canny lads as it happens) who would buy bottles of Heineken and store them in buckets of water to keep them cool. At the end of the day they would all be pissed out of their heads but it was just considered normal.
I still remember the van owners name, Henk Vink. He's probably dead by now.

Most of the German location shots in Series 1 were filmed in Hamburg, not Dusseldorf. One of the giveaways is that many of the cars have HH (Hamburg) number plates
