There’s no doubt that fans of the film will be intrigued to catch up with the beloved characters, but if it’s instant uplift you want, go back to the original ✒️ GerardVGilbert
a comedy-drama about six redundant Sheffield steelworkers who become male strippers , became one of the most successful British films of all time. The story of the rapidly declining traditional role of men in de-industrialised societies struck a universal chord, earning it four Oscar nominations and over £52million at the box office – unusual for an indie film.
Its gloomy backdrop of grey Sheffield skies was elevated by an engaging and funny script that delivered its money shot in a crisp yet stirring 90 minutes. Can an eight-hour TV mini-series made byThe portents are certainly good. All the male leads – Robert Carlyle, Mark Addy, Tom Wilkinson, Steve Huison, Paul Barber – resprise their roles . The same writer, Simon Beaufoy, is also on board.
Gaz is now living in a caravan and has an estranged daughter. Dave is working as a caretaker at the run-down academy school where his wife Jean is now headteacher. Horse rides a mobility scooter, is baffled by self-service checkouts and exists on the breadline. Lomper and his husband Dennis run a café called “Big Baps”, though they apparently didn’t notice double entendre and the shop sign is soon covered over for fear of being “cancelled”. A more positive sign of the times is the relaxed and less reticent way in which the couple’s gay relationship is handled – there’s certainly none of the homophobic slurs bandied that were bandied about in the film.
