Alan Bleasdale's searing portrait of the effects of Thatcherite policies on a group of Liverpudlian workers.
Television's most powerful response to the Thatcher era. The BFI calls the series 'a warm, humorous but ultimately tragic look at the way economics affect ordinary people... a lament to the end of a male, working class British culture'. Directed by Alan Bleasdale, the drama tells the stories of five unemployed Liverpudlian tarmac workers.
