Thanks. Just about my favourite John Thaw one-off movie ever. Brilliantly amd movingly understated. As is the whole story. Wonderful spare writing.

This was absolutely fantastic , the best one of these I've seen . Was like an episode of Minder . Even Arthur Fowler got an appearance as Benhams trainer maybe ?

This is basically the story of Terry McCann before he first went to Prison, and before getting hooked up with Arthur Daley. Leon Griffiths being the writer is a big clue.

@williamdodds1394 Жыл бұрын

McCann never was a featherweight.

@barnabyhughes5643 Жыл бұрын

That's irrelevant, you are nitpicking, McCann was a boxer like he is a boxer...a boxer is a boxer.

Fantastic and authentic. Superb acting by all. So well casted. Main error was Elwyn having no bandages on his hands when his gloves were taken off after sparring. Apart from that, this is a masterpiece. Reminds me of when I was boxing and we would go to a show with club mates and the two trainers in a minibus and all eat together afterwards. I was fit as a flea and wish I was today.
