Boys from the Blackstuff

[EcosseMackem]

Aye Scully was good, as was this, which featured the actor who played Scully

GBH

Didn't the lad who played Scully play a copper in Yosser's Story - the one that stopped him trying to drown himself

The pub scene at the end of the last episode is brilliant

I think that scene was from the redundancy pub scene.
Memory fades.

The funeral scene was decent as well. Hard times without doubt.

It was yeah

Chrissy and Loggo went to the pub after the funeral but some redundant lads came in blowing their money, then there was the ventriloquist, the whistler (who got thrown through the window) and the fed up landlord and of course Shake Hands and Yosser

Thanks for reminding me.

The fella who played Lucien in the liver birds is an absolute double for the yorkshire ripper

i remember in that show he had a rabbit pelt coat

 

[Wolfman]

I forgot about shake hands

Absolutely brilliant scene I love how even when he's not in the shot you can hear him in the background going round the whole pub "Shake Hands. Come on shake hands." There's a whole table of young lads holding their arms in agony while their mate tries to climb over a table to get away from him "pint of bItter for the boy"

I worked and lived in Liverpool for a couple of years not long after it was shown on TV - When I was down there I was seeing a girl who was an actress and I got to meet and socialise with quite a few of the cast - very nice people in the main

 

[Heritage hampers]

What was the crack with shake hands?

Was there bloke's like him?

Yeah. Fantastic show. Heart wrenching and absolutely brutal. That pub scene at the end is hilarious. Agree with everything you said. Fantastic writing and acting throughout.
