Best British drama in years!
Review date: 2005-08-08 Rating: 10 out of 10
Words cannot explain how amazing this show is. Paul Abbots semi-autobiographical drama about a working class family living on a rough estate in Manchester is the best British comedy/drama in years. The family in question is the Gallachers. The house is ran by big sister Fiona & her boyfriend Steve. Then there's Lip, Ian, Debbie, Carl & Liam. The star of the show, however, is Frank their estranged alcoholic father.
This series is even better than the first one. It puts you through every possible emotion often within a single episode. The reason for this is its incredibly 'real' feel. Every single one of the characters, regardless of how big or small a part they play, have tremendous depth & the relationships portrayed between them are brilliantly written & acted.
If there's one critism I have for this series then it's the rather anti-climactic final episode. I feel they tried to put too much into 45 minutes & it ended up looking like it was just there to set up the third series which is something I really can't wait for!
Please, please, please buy this because there is no chance whatsoever of you being disappointed. A real gem.
