This Is England '86
Created by Shane Meadows
On Channel 4
A dark, intimate portrait of working-class youth in 1980s Nottingham, where coming-of-age collides with gang violence and social decay.
It's 1986 - the year Maradona ends England's World Cup dreams in Mexico; the year Top Gun is the highest grossing film; the year over 3.4 million Brits are unemployed and the year Shaun is leaving school.
