Talitha Wing joins the cast of the Full Monty series as the daughter of Robert Carlyle's GazThe Full Monty, about a group of unemployed Sheffield steelworkers-turned-strippers, was one of the best-loved and highest-grossing British films of the 1990s. A new streaming series shows what became of the characters.
That didn't last long, though, Carlyle continues. "The past 25 years have been really tough for people. Twenty-five years, it seems, of austerity that's really chipped away at these characters and their lives.Gaz is now a porter on a psychiatric ward, while best mate Dave is a caretaker at the school where his wife Jean is headteacher. Both fertile settings for storylines about a crumbling state.
They have been able to put a wide range of issues "in a package and still make it funny". Carlyle says. "That's the genius of Simon's writing. If you don't laugh, you'll cry." He concluded that "the overall experience is a mirthful yet melancholic one worth riding along with".Lesley Sharp's Jean, now a headteacher, has more screen time in the new series
"So I think it's great that the original film, which was male centric, is now being ameliorated by the presence of some really interesting older and younger women."
